When you approach a curve with limited visibility, the priority is to control your speed and stay within your lane so you can react to anything you can’t see yet. Slowing down before you enter the curve gives you time to respond if an obstacle, animal, or another vehicle appears around the bend. Staying in your lane avoids drifting into the opposite lane or off the road, and not cutting the corner reduces the risk of colliding with hazards or oncoming traffic that you can’t see. Accelerating into the curve or stopping in it makes you less able to react and increases the chance of losing control. So the safest approach is to slow down before entry, stay in your lane, and avoid cutting the corner.
