As we learn

Reaction Road on Car When bridge is convex -

F_{c}=mg\ cos\theta-R=\frac{mv^{2}}{r}

R=mg\ cos\theta-\frac{mv^{2}}{r}

R = reaction

Fc= centripetal force

mg = weight

- wherein

\theta= angle of R with centre

v = tangential velocity

 

So R=mg\ cos\theta-\frac{mv^{2}}{r}

So as \Theta decreases cos\Theta Increases so R Increases.
