What is a "camber"?
A camber refers to the slight curve or tilt of a road’s surface, which is designed to help water flow off the road instead of collecting on it. This helps prevent water from pooling and makes the road safer by reducing the risk of slippery conditions. The camber also contributes to the stability of the road by ensuring that the weight of vehicles is distributed evenly. It is typically most noticeable in the center of the road, where the curve is most pronounced, and gradually flattens toward the edges.
a slight convexity (as of the surface of a road)
curve upward in the middle
