reverse light

Rearward driving indicator

A reverse light is the white light at the rear of a vehicle that illuminates when the transmission is in reverse gear.

It signals to others that the vehicle is backing up and helps the driver see what's behind them.

Also called a backup light.

Check that your reverse lights are working before your inspection.
