Answer:

As a result, force must be applied to a car so that it can move along a circular track. Such force is called the centripetal force and it was shown that this force must be pointing towards the center of the circular path that the object is moved on. Thus the driver would feel being thrown outwards as the car turns.

hope it helps you

It is due to Newton's first law of motion also called Law of inertia.

Law of inertia states that if a body is at rest or it is moving at constant speed, it will stay that way until any external force is applied.

In this case, Car follows a path, passenger will tend to follow the same path even if car curves due to inertia and eventually will be thrown out if car takes a turn. It'll happen at every curve.
