Speed and Centrifugal force | How they affect road safety ? | Cyberabad Traffic Police

Centrifugal Force:
If a car on the "inside" lane of a curve tries to navigate with too much speed, centrifugal force will pull it away from the center and, potentially, into the path of oncoming traffic.

Provided that a vehicle may be overtaken from the left, if-
