What does the back button in the car mean?
2 Answers
The back button in the car refers to making a U-turn, which is an operation that changes the direction of the car by 180 degrees under road conditions where U-turns are allowed. Precautions for making a U-turn are as follows: 1. Choose a safe section of the road where U-turns are allowed, with little traffic and without hindering the normal passage of vehicles and pedestrians, based on road conditions or traffic. 2. Make the U-turn at a dashed line; U-turns are not allowed at solid lines. 3. U-turns are strictly prohibited at crosswalks, railway crossings, narrow roads, curves, bridges, tunnels, underpasses, and sections with no U-turn signs. 4. When making a U-turn at an allowed section or intersection, turn on the left turn signal in advance.
I just got a new car recently, and it came with this back button. It's usually located near the infotainment screen or on the steering wheel, with an icon of a left-pointing arrow. For example, when using navigation while driving, pressing it takes you back to the previous menu or map without having to reach out and tap the screen. Some cars even exit the reverse camera interface when you press the back button, which is super convenient. Last time I was reversing in the garage, one press took me straight back to the main screen. But a friendly reminder: don't press it too often while driving—getting distracted could lead to a rear-end collision. Safety first!
