Due to the action of centrifugal force, heavy goods vehicles, when negotiating curves, tend to move towards:
AThe outside of the curve;Correct
BThe inside of the curve;
CThe side of the wind direction.
Explanation
Centrifugal force is an inertial force that acts on any vehicle describing a curvilinear trajectory, always pushing it in the opposite direction to the center of the curve, i.e., towards its outside. For this reason, the tendency to move towards the inside is incorrect, as it contradicts the physical effect of this force. Crosswind also does not define the direction of centrifugal force, which depends exclusively on the vehicle's speed, mass, and the curve's radius.
