SR 40 from west of Denver to Steamboat Springs is insane. You'll get a nosebleed from the switchbacks; you're basically taking on radical elevation changes in a very short time. I love that drive.

That road is insane.
On the east coast, Hwy-97 in NY between Barryville and Port Jervis is used in a lot of car commercials to show handling on curvy roads. Its called the Hawks Nest.
There are a lot of state numbered highways inn Arkansas and West Virginia, where you can drive for 20 miles behind a slow car, and never be able to see around him, even if there is no traffic coming the other way.
It's actually longer than that, there are curves that get to there adding another 15 miles or so onto it. I've driven it. The cut backs are like every 50 feet also.
Huh. I don't remember being that curvy. I've done it, too. But from the coast to Hwy 3, Hwy 3 seemed a bit curvier. Didn't go on it further east. Here's a photo I took of it.
Nearby Mattole Road is far curvier, but it's not a highway.

not curvy, but attention-getting
I was referring to TOD and areas in Smoky Mountains.
That is 1 cool road, drove it once downhill pulling a trailer. Inlaws lived in Mexican Hat.
