Question 1040437: what needs to be done to a road if the speed limit was increased and the banking angle was left unchanged?
If the speeding limit was increased while the banking angle was not changed, the car would lose friction as it picked up speed, but what would need to be done to the road itself?

If the speed limit exceeds it critical value while the banking angle was not changed, then either the road coverage
needs to be changed (to increase friction) or the driver should decrease the speed of the car.
