Is it allowed to reverse on national highways?

[Felicity]

Reversing on national highways is prohibited, otherwise penalty points and fines will be imposed. Vehicle reversing speed: Generally, the maximum reversing speed for small cars is about 50-70 km/h. Since the reverse gear directly connects the engine main shaft to the transmission shaft without speed change, the speed and duration won't damage the transmission or vehicle - it only depends on driving skills. The reverse gear provides the strongest power; when encountering obstacles that prevent forward movement, reversing can be used to pass through. For large trucks, the maximum reversing speed is typically 45-60 km/h. Off-road vehicles with sufficient horsepower and light weight can reach up to 80 km/h in reverse. Precautions when reversing: Whether you're a beginner or experienced driver, this is a crucial point to note. Not only should you avoid pressing the accelerator while reversing, but you also shouldn't half-press the brake. Especially for beginners, reversing should be done at a speed slower than idle speed. This allows more time to observe the surrounding environment.
