When entering a curve and driving through it a driver is required to:
- Accelerate at the entry to the curve and slow down in the middle of it.
- Accelerate to ensure smooth turning.
- Correct answer: Slow down and maintain a constant speed
- Stay close to the middle of the roadway to ensure vehicle stability.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Slow down and maintain a constant speed
In a curve, centrifugal force pushes the vehicle outward, and the higher the speed, the greater the risk of skidding, leaving the lane or rolling over. So slow down before entering the curve and keep a steady, moderate speed through it. Accelerating in a curve is dangerous, and keeping to the middle of the road risks a collision with oncoming traffic.
