What should you do if you miss an exit on a controlled-access highway?

  1. Reverse and backtrack to the missed exit.

  2. Make a U-turn on the highway to go back.

  3. Continue to the next exit and find an alternative route.

  4. Pull over to the side and wait for assistance.

The correct answer is: Continue to the next exit and find an alternative route.

If you miss an exit on a controlled-access highway, it is not safe to reverse or make a U-turn on the highway. This can cause accidents and is also illegal. Additionally, waiting for assistance on the side of the highway can be dangerous and increase the risk of causing a traffic incident. It is best to continue to the next exit and find an alternative route to your destination. This option is safer and ensures that you do not disrupt the flow of traffic on the highway.
