    The document provides instruction on how to safely reverse a vehicle around a left corner, noting that it requires extra care and control due to the front of the vehicle swinging out during the turn. The key steps are to reverse slowly using clutch control while looking primarily backwards and checking all mirrors and blind spots, steer the vehicle around the corner while glancing in the left mirror for guidance, then straighten back up once past the corner. Safety for other road users is also emphasized.
