Question:1

In your opinion, is the white vehicle within the curve positioned correctly?

3980
  • No, the vehicle is close to the middle of the roadway and it endangers vehicles coming from the opposite direction.
  • In sharp curves it is necessary to “cut” through the curve, in order to reduce the centrifugal force (the force that acts on the vehicle while it turns).
  • When there is no other vehicle in the curve it is possible to be positioned anywhere within it.
  • When driving on a sharp curve, it is required to stay in it as shortly as possible; hence his position is correct.
