Flashcard 3 - Passenger Transport Flashcard Set for the CDL

Back

Excessive speed on curves is extremely dangerous. With good traction, the bus could roll over. With bad traction, the bus could slide off the road.


Explanation:

The “design speed” posted on warning signs are not for buses. “Design speed” is for cars running on dry pavement with good traction.

If the bus leans toward the outside of a banked curve, you are driving too fast.

When in doubt, reduce speed.
