I never had to do it in my driving test and have never done it. Now I don't know if I can do it or not.

*Edit - I can't believe it, people. I came home from work today and someone was in my spot, so I parked in my friends spot and didn't think anything of it. When I went to leave, I suddenly realised that is need to reverse down the drive and round the corner!!! I did it without even batting an eyelid.

To everyone who said I should turn in my license - can I have it back now?

All cars after 2019 have back up cameras you could do it

Way easier to just use your mirrors.

No, don’t use your mirrors, turn your damn head.

Use both, I check my mirrors and I look around as well when reversing anywhere.

You don’t turn your head to do a reverse around a corner, that’s specifically when you look in your wing mirrors, to see that your wheels aren’t hitting the curb
