Best Answer

Only onto a major road or junction, or by a local ordinance. Otherwise we would all have a U shaped driveway.

You need a turn-around area in your driveway. It certainly is not safe to come to a stop on the highway and back into your driveway nor is it safe to back out of your driveway onto the highway.

I have a straight driveway and it's not illegal to back out onto a minor residential street.

Only if it is a Major road. Minor roads, cul-de-sacs etc are ok, but due care should always be taken when reversing.

The entrance to a driveway is considered an intersection; the same rules apply to it as to a normal road intersection.

You must yield (or give priority) to the traffic already on the road.

In the UK, if there is nothing coming, it is ill advised, but not illegal.

If backing out of your driveway you come to a full stop at the end of it because you see another car coming and the other car hits you while your bumper is still on your own driveway who ist at fault.?

It depends. Which bumper is still in your driveway, your front or rear? Did the other car leave the roadway and hit your car? After you came to a full stop did you then proceed to back out and then got hit? If any part of your car was in the roadway then it would most probably be your fault. Any vehicle that is entering into traffic from a driveway is required to yield the right of way to those vehicles traveling within the roadway. If you stuck 2 inches of your car into the road and you were hit, it would be your fault.
