History

Which consequence arose more often when Roman road curves exceeded design thresholds?

A)Reduced marching speeds of infantry
B)Increased likelihood of landslides
C)Greater incidence of wheel fracturing
D)Disrupted signal fire communications network

💡 Explanation

Wheel fracturing increased because exceeding road's curve threshold induced excessive Torsional stress from uneven wheel path lengths; therefore, spokes experienced fatigue, leading to failure, rather than the structural subsidence or marginally reduced march speeds.
