Are you allowed to reverse if you miss a motorway exit?

What does this rule or driving tip mean?Turning around and reversing do not fit the high speeds and predictable traffic flow on a motorway, so they are prohibited. How to apply this safely Stay calm if your navigation system gives instructions too late. Do not make a sudden lane change just before the exit. Take the next exit and return via a permitted route. Driving lesson and test tip A detour is always better than a last-minute manoeuvre. Safe and predictable driving matters more than taking the shortest route. Remember: Missed the exit? Keep driving and let the route recalculate. View the source: RVV 1990, article 43.
