Line 13: \| [[File:Straight-cornu.gif\|frameless\|upright=1.2\|center]] Straight section connected to a circular arc via a Cornu spiral\| \|- \| Comparison of a poorly designed road with no transition curve with the sudden application of centripetal force required to move in a circle versus a well -designed road in which the centripetal acceleration builds up gradually on a Cornu spiral before being constant on the circular arc. The second animation shows the increasing curvature of the transition curve which is able to connect to a circular arc of progressively smaller radius. \|}
