When taking a sharp curve which lane is the most safe the inner one or the outer one?

Inner because if you're going too fast you can go into the outer lane(if no one is there). In the outer lane you'll go off the road.

If you're racing on a track the idea is to hit the apex of the corner to ensure you maintain speed through the corner.

If you're driving on a road then stick to whatever side is the one you are supposed to be on or you will probably find yourself as a statistic on a morgue sheet.



Lord worthy of knotso.
Let me know when you are driving so that i can avoid you, as your road sense has fallen out of your ****. That is if you had any, which i suspect you never did.

What sort of road are you referring to? on a left hand bent the left hand lane and on a right hand bend the left hand lane. In this country we drive on the left.

The advice 50 years ago was wide in, tight out on a bend . This means that on a right hand bend , keep to the left to see round the corner and any obstruction that might be there. You`ll notice that 95% of modern drivers "straight line" a right hand bend and straddle the crown, causing oncoming vehicles to brake. To counter this, wide in on a left hand bend , close to the crown will give you better vision to see them earlier and more room.

Outside, then inside, then outside. You can't do that on public roads.

this is a hard one. either way there's a positive side. if you go on the inner lane yeah you can go to the outer lane if there's any trouble, but when you're in the inner lane in a curve it can be harder to see around the bend especially when you're in hill country.

the lane you are already in if driving on roads in a car, on a motorbike shortest route across corner on own side of road when safe to do so (other road users)

if there's oncoming traffic, the inner lane is more dangerous. if there is no concoming traffic, the outer is.
