    The authors derive a simple geometric characterization of those quadratic Bézier curves having a monotone curvature. In addition, the problem of constructing a quadratic curve with ``almost monotone'' curvature is studied. At the end of the paper, the special case of a symmetric Bézier curve is considered.
