As a rule, we reverse into the parking lot near the store or in the yard, and there is always the danger that, for example, a child can get under the wheels. Due to his small stature, he may be outside the zone reflected in the mirrors.
A driver who accidentally hits another person’s car in a parking lot and may not even have noticed could be held liable for Leaving the Scene of a Traffic Accident (RTA).
In some cases there is a penalty for rollback:
- at the pedestrian crossing
- on the highway
- On Bridge
- under the viaduct and so on.
If there is a traffic policeman nearby, a fine of 500 rubles is inevitable, even if there was no accident, the lawyer stressed.
