You could reverse down the road, or would there be a moment between forwards and backwards when you're stopped?

You have to cross over 0 at some point

Stopping isn't the same as driving at 0 speed.

A car is stopped if and only if its acceleration is also 0.

And velocity is 0. Otherwise Johnny 100kmph is technically stopped
