Depends on the vehicle and how fast you go round the bend. Its probably the frame or chassis twisting slightly leaving a gap in the seal.
Or maybe your window is just open.

In over twenty years, I've driven hundreds of vehicles, and I'm on my fifth Transit. I can honestly say I've never experienced this phenomenon in any vehicle.
