The first switchback is reminiscent of Needles Highway in Custer National Park.  Only there are about 20 of them both uphill and downhill.  Or coming down Douglass Pass on Rt. 139 towards Grand Junction in Colorado...

The lower section is nothing special.  Its the upper 3 that require most bikes and cars to swing wide to make the turn.  To be honest if you get traffic out of the way and swing into the oncoming lane they are not that bad either.  After I started this thread I happened to recall a friend of mine grew up on Signal Mtn so I asked them about this road.  Their response was that it was basically expected that the upper 3 hairpins are one way turns and everyone takes the entire roadway width.
