Answer 7

Actually,Does a race car go of the road because of any of these answers,or small sports cars,I would think it would be loss of traction,Some vechiles can support and negotiate corners better than others,centrifugal force plays a important factor. Increased friction causes rubber to be a stickier substance,and gravity would cause it stay stable. I guess if I had to choose one of these answers it would be (B),But I don`t agree with it.    

Answer 8

none of the above.

It's inertia.

Newtons first law, things in motion tend to stay in motion.

Without enough friction to change the direction of your car, it'll keep going in the same direction it was headed in, right off the road.

What does centrifugal force have to do with it anyway?  What exactly is exerting this "force" on the automobile?  Some kind of magical sideways gravity pushing the car off the road?  These are *not* rhetorical questions.  Ok, the last one is kinda sarcastic but the other two.....

Answer 9

It's B
