When you're reversing, keep in mind that the steering isn't exactly the same as driving forwards, it'll feel like it's more sensitive. This is because the steering wheels are now in the back, if that makes sense. When I started reversing around corners or whatever, I only look back to check that its clear. Then I just used all of my mirrors. I looked in the mirror that showed my rear tire wheel and the curb and somewhat measured the distance between them in my head. Then as I went back, I would constatnly check that mirror to make sure that while I'm turning, my wheen stays the same distance away from the curb. After you get a feel for how the steering is while you go backwards, it'll get really easy.

Yea, you can go quite fast backwards round a corner. The thing you must remember, you have to be real smooth. A little bit of turning goes along ways, when you are backing up. The best way is to go to a parking lot, and try a few test runs. You can do it but it is kinda tricky.

Look backwards for the most of the time you are going back glance forwards occasionally to check its safe remember to turn your wheel in the direction you want your car to go carry out your turn slowly if it starts to go wrong you got more chance to put it right when you turn your wheel give your car time to react to what you asked it to do
GOOD LUCK.

HERE IS A TIP I GOT WHEN I WAS YOUNG AND IT HAS ALWAYS HELPED ME, HOLD THE WHEEL ON THE BOTTOM AND JUST THINK ABOUT IT LIKE THIS, YOUR FRONT END WILL ALWAYS GO THE WAY YOUR HAND DOES, AND THE BACK OF COURSE DOES THE OPPOSITE.
