You are driving at the speed of 90 km/h. What starting position will ensure optimal trajectory on the bend?
Description
Annex 1 § 1 pt. 2 lit. f to the Regulation of the Minister of Transport, Construction and Maritime Economy of 13 July 2012 on the training of persons applying for the right to drive vehicles, instructors and lecturers, Journal of Laws item 1019 of 14 September 2012.
Explanation
Correct answer: By the right edge of the road.
In the image shown, the road gently curves to the left. To negotiate such a turn optimally, you should apply the 'outside-inside-outside' technique, which for a left curve means starting the manoeuvre at the right edge of the roadway. This starting position increases the turning radius, improves visibility of the road beyond the curve, and ensures a safe distance from oncoming vehicles.
