What is the expected outcome of not changing your gear before a turn?

Not changing your gear before a turn can lead to a potential loss of control due to power changes. When approaching a turn, it is essential to adjust your speed and gear to maintain stability and traction. If you enter a turn in too high a gear or with the engine still engaged at a high RPM, the sudden need to accelerate or decelerate can cause a loss of grip on the tires. This can make it difficult to navigate the turn safely, leading to skidding or even an accident. By downshifting to a lower gear before entering the turn, you can control your speed more effectively and provide the necessary power to your wheels as you exit the turn, ensuring better handling and stability throughout the maneuver.
