About Cornering: centrifugal force and reading the bend: which statement is WRONG?

The same bend at 30 km/h and at 60 km/h gives four times as much centrifugal force at 60 km/h, not twice.
Watch out: some bends curve increasingly sharply inward, so your first assessment on entry can become outdated.
Whether a bend has positive or negative camber makes little practical difference to how you should take the bend.
This force pushes you towards the OUTSIDE of the bend, and is stronger with a smaller bend radius and a higher speed.

Explanation

trap: a visually subtle road feature dismissed as unimportant. Book p.68 - with positive camber the outer bend lies higher than the inner bend; with negative camber the risk of flying off the bend is greater
