What is the maximum speed limit for driving on curves?

[DiJason]

The maximum speed when driving on curves should not exceed 30 km/h. Turning path: Outside-inside-outside. Try to turn with a large arc that tends to be straight. Turning principles: Slow in, moderate throttle, fast out. Before entering the curve while still driving straight, you should first apply the brakes to slow down the car. If the curve is large, you should further reduce the speed and downshift one gear. Uphill curves: When navigating an uphill curve, release the throttle before entering the curve, allowing the vehicle to enter the curve at a relatively high speed along the outside. Then downshift one or two gears, choose your path and adjust direction while applying light throttle. After passing the apex of the curve, move back to the outside of the curve while increasing throttle, and finally exit the curve quickly along the outside.

As a veteran driver with over a decade of experience, I know there's no fixed upper limit for cornering speeds—it all depends on the situation. On highways, speed limit signs for curves typically show 80 or 100 km/h, but when you encounter sharp turns on mountain roads, even slowing down to 30 or 40 km/h can feel too fast—once, I took a rainy mountain curve too quickly and nearly lost control, which was terrifying. From experience, it's best to slow down before entering a curve, especially at night with poor visibility or on slippery roads—halving the standard speed is safer. Vehicle type also matters; SUVs with higher centers of gravity require even slower speeds. In short, follow road signs but don’t get complacent—adjust flexibly to ensure safe driving.

If you've taken a driving safety course, you'll realize that cornering speeds can't be rigidly defined—they depend on physics and handling skills. Tight turns require lower speeds, while gentle curves allow more leeway. I often use a simple rule of thumb: for sharp bends, 30-50 km/h is the maximum, whereas smoother curves might permit up to 60 km/h. But these are just basics—in real driving, halving your speed on wet roads isn't an exaggeration. Skilled drivers can manage speed through cornering techniques, but I always emphasize: safety is the absolute baseline—never risk speeding to save time. Tires and road conditions matter greatly; new tires offer better grip, but bumpy roads demand slower pacing.

The feeling of being a novice driver is that taking curves at high speed is quite scary, as the steering can easily get out of control, so I never exceed two-thirds of the speed limit indicated on the signs. On sharp turns, I honestly slow down to 25-40 km/h, ensuring a steady entry into the curve for peace of mind. My instructor taught me not to rely solely on signs but also to trust my intuition: if the curve isn't clearly visible or it's raining, slowing down a bit more is more reliable. Protecting myself and my passengers is the most important thing—the principle of safety first never makes an exception.
