Do You Ride Your Car's Brakes Through A Turn?

Front wheel drive: I brake into the turn and very gradually accelerate out
of the turn. Of note is that when following the actual speed listed for
reduced speed turns--the amount of lateral G forces are very negligible. For
example, a 25 mph clover-leaf turn before a merge acceleration lane onto a
freeway has designed banking for a 25 mph turn, but there is a noticeable
lateral G force pull when taking the same clover-leaf turn at 35 mph.
