How should a driver manage a bend when driving a fully loaded vehicle?

  1. A.At the same speed as when empty.
  2. B.At a slower speed than when empty.
  3. C.By taking the bend more sharply than when empty.
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B. At a slower speed than when empty.

Driving too fast on the approach to a bend and while driving through it with a fully loaded vehicle can lead to a loss of control. This can be prevented by driving in a safe and sensible manner and by reading the road ahead.
