Explanation
If you miss your exit on a freeway, don't back up. Backing up on a freeway or stopping in travel lanes is illegal and can be very dangerous. Instead, you should continue driving to the next exit. This is the safest way to correct the mistake and avoid causing a collision or blocking traffic.
