Circular Acceleration Car rounding turn wrong statement

[Jordash]

Homework Statement

What is wrong with the physics in the following statement? “The car rounds the turn at a
constant velocity of 50 km/h.” Rewrite it so that it conveys the correct meaning.

Homework Equations

none

The Attempt at a Solution

I'm thinking it's something to do with Circular motion, should it be Constant Acceleration?

Newton's First law would imply that an object moving at constant velocity would move in a straight line.

ok, that makes sense, so I would rewrite it to: A Car rounds a turn at a Constant Speed of 50 Km/hr? Would that be a good re-write?
