I have a wooden fence that usually comes in 6' tall by 8' long segments but I have a curve I would like to go around which is the area at the end of a driveway where it curves out to go into the street so it is a gentle curve.

My neighbor down the street, did an awesome job on his privacy fence. Instead of putting the wood up & down, he put them horizontal, and used a pole for helping the fence to turn. The 1st board is in front of the pole, 2nd behind the pole. 3rd in front of pole, 4th behind, and so on. It looks gorgeous. I'll have to take a picture & show you.
Interesting. I would like to see the picture.
Why not plant a pruneable shrub or two to flare out the line. You need to see on-coming traffic, so a 6 ft fence blocking the view isn't desirable. The shrubs will soften the fence and create a more welcoming entrance.

My first thought, since it's an inside curve, would be to do "relief cuts" on the horizontal supports that would allow it to bend.
