I can't honestly see any need for the car to go more than 30 kph in reverse (and I'm a bit of a speed merchant) the rear vision is probably more of a reason than a stability issue. If you need to go more than 30 kph why not turn the car round & do it ? In fact in the UK it is ILLEGAL to drive unnecessary distances backwards - there is a specific offence of reversing further than is necessary.
