Drivers should turn on their hazard lights when backing up if they are in a situation that may pose a hazard to other road users, such as backing out of a parking space in a busy area or when visibility is limited. This alerts other drivers and pedestrians of the vehicle's movements, enhancing safety. However, it’s important to ensure that the hazard lights are used appropriately and not as a substitute for proper signaling, such as using turn signals when necessary.

Do you use signal lights when backing out of a driveway?

I do, but my kids tell me I'm wrong. I think it lets others see that I am backing out and turning in that direction as indicated.Added: There is no specific law againstit that I am aware of - however your back-up lights should serve the same warning purpose to oncoming traffic. Don't let the fact that you have your flashers operating lull you into a false sense of security. It is always incumbent on the driver of the backing vehicle to yield to any oncoming or conflicting traffic.
