TomTom on the iPhone is a must for all lovers of good driving roads.

If only the Android version had the same option...

The windy roads option comes from the TomTom Rider. Created for the biker hence the option.
Get yourself an iPhone.

On the other hand, if you live in North Yorkshire you don't need it.

A good driver should be able to cope with any road in any conditions with equal ease.
Perhaps you could give some examples of how you dealt with the hazards you've described.

Down here, around the Poole Bournemouth conurbation the roads are terrible, but head North of Wimborne Minster towards Cranborne, or up to Shaftesbury, and it's a different story. The C13 Shaftesbury to Blandford Forum is good, as is the A354 Blandfor Forum to Salisbury road, much better than the A31 and the A350 which are always busy. The A356 Dorchester to Crewkerne road isn't too bad either, apart from a couple of villages where there are 30mph limits.
