Explanation
It is important to slow your vehicle before entering a sharp curve to maintain control and safety. Driving too fast on a curve can cause you to lose control of your vehicle as it will continue to move straight ahead, even when you try to turn the steering wheel. Slowing down on a curve will allow you to maintain control of your vehicle, reduce your speed, and prepare you for any hazards you may encounter.
