Driving SafelyPregunta 56 de 60

a.Accelerate to keep momentum
b.Change lanes quickly
c.Apply the brakes hard in the middle of the curve
d.Slow to a safe speed before the curve, then proceed steadily
Explicación
You should reduce your speed before you enter the curve, not while turning through it. Slowing early keeps braking and cornering forces from combining on the top-heavy vehicle. Then you can steer smoothly through the curve at a safe, steady speed.
