Correct answer
- CLos metros necesarios para salir de la calle, aunque se invada un cruce de vías.As many metres as you need to get out of the street, even if you enter a junction.
Reversing is allowed when it is not possible to go forward or to change direction, and only for the minimum distance needed (Article 80.1 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC)). The limit of 15 metres without entering a junction applies only when reversing is part of stopping, parking or joining traffic (Article 80.2).
