Ahead of the motorbike a car is seeking to reverse on the road. What should you anticipate?

The combination you selected reflects a good understanding of the situation on the road.

1. Expecting that the car continues to reverse is crucial because a reversing vehicle poses a direct hazard. Drivers often do not have full visibility and might not see other vehicles, especially motorbikes, approaching from behind.

2. Anticipating that the motorbike might suddenly brake is also valid. Sudden movements by nearby vehicles can prompt instinctive reactions, especially in unexpected scenarios like a car reversing.

3. Expecting a longer braking distance is important, particularly in adverse conditions like snow. Slippery roads reduce traction, meaning that even if you react promptly, it will take longer to stop safely.

Together, these points are essential for safe driving under these conditions and align with the German traffic rules that emphasize defensive driving and proactive awareness of potential hazards. Understanding and preparing for these possibilities can prevent accidents and ensure safer roads for all users.
