Let the normal reactions on the inner and outer wheels beN_1,N_2respectivley.
Let the height of the truck beh.

A pseudo force of\dfrac{mv^2}{r}acts on its center of mass.

Since the body should remain under rotational equilibrium from the point under the center of mass and touching the ground,

N_1(\dfrac{l}{2})+\dfrac{mv^2}{r}.h=N_2(\dfrac{l}{2})
AlsoN_1+N_2=mg

Solving the above equations gives,

N_1=\dfrac{mg}{2}-\dfrac{mv^2h}{lr} andN_2=\dfrac{mg}{2}+\dfrac{mv^2h}{lr}

Hence when speed limit is crossed,N_1becomes zero and the inner tyre leaves the ground.
