The width and the height of the centre of gravity of a vehicle negotiating a horizontal curve are "b" and "h" respectively, µ is the coefficient of friction between the road surface and the wheels. If the radius of the curve is low and the speed of the vehicle is high, it would overturn before skidding when,

The width and the height of the centre of gravity of a vehicle negotiating a horizontal curve are "b" and "h" respectively, µ is the coefficient of friction between the road surface and the wheels. If the radius of the curve is low and the speed of the vehicle is high, it would overturn before skidding when,
A. b/2h is less than µ
B. b/h is less than µ
C. b/h is more than µ
D. b/2h is more than µ
The correct answer is option D. b/2h is more than mu. Can you explain this answer in the comments?
