How should you take curves in a tank vehicle?

Posted curve advisory speeds are for passenger vehicles, not tank trucks. A tank vehicle should enter a curve substantially below the advisory speed — typically 5-15 mph below depending on the curve sharpness, vehicle load, and product. Slow before entering, then maintain steady speed (or accelerate gently) through the curve. Braking inside a curve transfers weight forward, reduces rear grip, and combined with liquid surge can cause a rollover. Acceleration adds outward force. Entering too fast is the most common cause of tanker rollovers, especially on highway off-ramps where drivers misjudge the curve. The motto: 'slow into the corner, smooth through it.'
