It is possible for a car to overturn at fast or slow speeds. This happens when the center of gravity is transferred to one side of the vehicle when going around the curve.

Inertia causes a force in motion to keep moving. So, when you suddenly change directions, you continue in that direction as you turn. As a side note, that's why racers can drift.

What is the difference between a Blackberry Bold and a Blackberry Curve?

For a start the blackberry curve has the best camera in the blackberry history , with a high resolution of 3.2 Mega pixels and the blackberry bold only has a 2 Mega pixel camera. But there is one great feature that was lacking on the curve; it has no 3G support. The curve only has GSM and EDGE support and as such, is severely restricted in terms of data speed when not connected to a Wi-Fi network. The bold, on the other, has quad band GSM support along with 3G and HSDPA capabilities giving it a maximum speed of 7.2Mbps. When connected to a high speed HSDPA network, the bold can be up to 100 times faster compared to the curve in retrieving data.


When the speed posted on a sign that warns you of a curve ahead?

On many highways it is unsafe to continue at the normal speed limit as you go around a curve (especially for large trucks with a high center of gravity that might tip over), therefor reduced speed signs (often yellow advisory signs not the usual white legal signs) are posted indicating reasonable and safe speeds to use through the curve.


What is the maximum speed an aircraft can vacate a runway on a high speed taxiway according to ICAO?

The speed is two fold. One- you must be at safe turning speed for the particular aircraft and Two; it must be at or below the maximum taxi speed. High Speed Taxiways are just taxiways that curve off the runway, allowing for a greater turn radius (in stead of a T intersection its more like a J).


When travel on rural road at high speed you need what?

You should not travel at high speed on country roads. They are often narrow, winding, with high hedges, rises and dips. Anything could be round the corner: tractors, herd of cows, horse-riders, people walking in a group. So keep you speed down.
