Question:medium
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): Road camber helps in surface drainage.
Reason (R): In a curved road alignment, super elevation serves the purpose of camber.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

Show Hint
On a straight road, we use Camber. On a curved road, we transition the Camber into Super-elevation. Both ensure water doesn't stay on the road!
