To reduce the chances of a rollover, drivers should:

Slowing down for curves and on/off ramps is critical for maintaining stability and control of a vehicle, especially with a hazardous materials load. When traveling at high speeds, particularly on curves, the risk of a rollover increases significantly due to the shift in the vehicle's center of gravity. By reducing speed, the driver can better navigate these turns, allowing for smoother steering adjustments and reducing the centrifugal force that can destabilize the vehicle.

Moreover, when making sharp turns, maintaining control becomes increasingly difficult, particularly for larger vehicles common in hazmat transportation, which can have a high center of gravity. Therefore, taking turns slowly not only enhances control but also minimizes the risk of accidents, keeping both the driver and the public safe from potential spills or exposure to hazardous materials.
