Slow down to a safe speed and downshift to the appropriate gear before entering the curve.
Commercial vehicle operating standards require drivers to reduce speed and downshift to the proper gear before entering a curve. This ensures the vehicle has full engine control and traction throughout the curve, allowing for smooth acceleration out of the turn.

Vehicle slows down to a manageable speed before steering into the turn.
Braking is most effective and safest while traveling in a straight line before entering a curve.
2
Complete the double-clutch downshift into the gear that matches the reduced speed before entering the curve.
The drivetrain is fully engaged in the proper lower gear prior to curve entry.
Being in the correct gear before entering the curve provides engine braking and allows smooth power delivery through the turn without upsetting vehicle balance.
