Choose an answer to check yourself.
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: In lanes other than the rightmost lane.
Explanation
Reversing is prohibited at intersections, when leaving an adjacent area onto the road and in the places listed in point 50, including pedestrian crossings. There is no such ban for lanes other than the right edge lane, so reversing there is allowed if it is safe and does not obstruct other road users (Rules, points 48, 49 and 50).
