What are the four factors that should be considered when rounding a curb?

1. Perception time, reaction time, and breaking time

2. speed, sharpness of curve, banked curves, and load

3. Energy produced by two objects rubbing against each other

4. Just turned green

The correct answer is: speed, sharpness of curve, banked curves, and load

When rounding a curb, there are several important factors to consider to ensure safe driving. The correct answer, option B, outlines these factors: 1. Speed: It is crucial to adjust your speed when approaching a curve to maintain control of your vehicle and navigate the curve safely. 2. Sharpness of curve: The degree of curvature in the road will determine how sharp of a turn you will need to make, influencing your speed and steering input. 3. Banked curves: Some curves are designed with a banked angle to help vehicles navigate them more easily. Understanding how to navigate banked curves safely is important. 4. Load: The weight and distribution of weight in your vehicle can affect how it handles when going around a curve. Be mindful of your vehicle's load to maintain stability. The other options are not directly related to the factors that should be considered when rounding a curb: - Option A refers to perception time, reaction time, and braking time, which are components of overall stopping distance and reaction time but not specific to rounding a curb. - Option C mentions energy produced by two objects rubbing against each other, which is unrelated to safe curving. - Option D simply indicates a traffic signal turning green, which is not relevant to the factors to consider when rounding a curb.
