Driving at a speed below 80 km/h is allowed. However, the minimum speed at which you can drive on the motorway is 50 km/h. Thus, You are prohibited from driving on the motorway at less than 50 km/h, not at less than 80 km/h.
On the motorway You are prohibited from the maneuver of moving in reverse, because on the motorway stopping voluntarily of vehicles is prohibited and the maneuver of moving in reverse is prohibited in all places where stopping voluntarily is prohibited.
Using the lane next to the median area that separates the two carriageways, more precisely the last traffic lane, is not prohibited for you. For example if the motorway has 3 lanes, we refer to lane 3 as being the one next to the median area that separates the two carriageways. You must not confuse the last lane with the median area, which is not a traffic lane. The median area is the space that separates the two directions of travel, either by those metal or concrete barriers, or by hatching, in the areas specially created to allow the possibility of crossing to the opposite direction, in case of emergencies or works.
