    Overturning of vehicles on a curve can be avoided by using

    Answer.
    Overturning of vehicles on a curve can be avoided by using a transition curve and by increasing the superelevation. A transition curve gradually changes the road's curvature from a straight path to a circular curve, which reduces the sudden buildup of centrifugal force. Superelevation, or banking, is the tilting of the road's outer edge to counterbalance this force and help keep the vehicle stable.  
     
    Transition curve
    • A transition curve (or spiral curve) is a gradual curve placed between a straight road and a circular curve.
    • It allows the vehicle to gradually change direction, which is more comfortable and safer.
    • It provides the necessary length to introduce superelevation smoothly and progressively, rather than abruptly. 
       
    Superelevation
    • Superelevation is the practice of tilting the road surface on a curve so that the outer edge is higher than the inner edge.
    • This tilting creates a component of gravity that counteracts the outward centrifugal force, helping to keep the vehicle from skidding or overturning.
