What is Types of Reversed Curves in Design about?

A reversed curve is a curve where the curvature changes direction, though pleasing to look at, it can cause discomfort to motorists traveling at design speeds due to the instant change in direction. There are four types of reversed curves that differ based on whether the radii are equal or unequal and whether the tangents are parallel or converging. Reversed curves are still used successfully for park roads, paths, and waterways despite some early safety problems at points of reverse curvature (PRC).
