How should drivers proceed on bends with reduced visibility?
Safe driving
Explanation
To drive safely on **curves with reduced visibility**, it is important to follow certain guidelines that help prevent accidents and maintain control of the vehicle.
- **Approach the right edge**: Before entering a curve, it is essential to reduce speed and get as close as possible to the right edge of the road. This helps maintain a safe position and avoid invading the opposite lane, which is especially important in tight or low-visibility curves.
- **Dangers of curves**: Curves are dangerous sections because taking them at high speed generates a force that can push the vehicle out of the curve. This can cause the vehicle to veer into the opposite lane or even off the road. Staying close to the right edge minimizes this risk.
- **Vehicle control**: Within the curve, it is crucial to turn the steering wheel smoothly and avoid braking or accelerating abruptly. This helps maintain control of the vehicle and follow the correct trajectory without veering off course.
By following these recommendations, safety is improved when driving on curves, especially those with reduced visibility.
