Is an uncrowded toll road a public good?
No it wouldn't be a public good, as though the road may be uncrowded, but you still have to pay to be on the road.

Toll roads are excludable goods and therefore are not public goods - the individual is prevented from going onto the road.

You have no claim against the other car's owner ! It's up to you to make sure your way is clear when reversing.

What is law on using private driveway to turn around?
It is not illegal in any state to back into a driveway from a highway. A person should use extra caution when doing this to make sure that the road is clear in both directions. If the highway has high traffic, pull to the left shoulder of the road, then back into the driveway when it is safe to do so.
What should you do if the car drops off the paved edge of the road onto a lower shoulder?
Slow down and if possible come almost to a stop. While still moving, steer back onto the road. The danger in steering back onto the road at a higher speed is that you might loose control and cross the road into opposing traffic and a possible collision.
