Curve is one possible opposite of straight if straight refers to line that does not bend. Other meanings of straight like honest, heterosexual, and direct have different opposites than curve.
In geometry a straight line that touches a curve is called a tangent.
Tangent to the curve.
The opposite of straight could be crooked, curved, turned, or bent. The opposite of straight (honest) could be dishonest, devious, or corrupt. The opposite of straight (slang for heterosexual) would be gay.
While a curve is one continuous motion, you can create the illusion of a curve by using straight lines. In order to do this, draw a continuous pattern of short straight lines, while changing the direction of each line slightly.
A tangent at that point where a straight line just touches a curve and a secant line when the straight line bisects the curve.
the opposite of straight is crooked or wavy.
The straight ball.
a curve... Well that could be an answer however it is not possible to have a bend or a curve 'in' a straight road. A curve or bend is, by definition, after the end of one straight section and before the beginning of the next; so it can not be 'in' a straight road.
A curve.

A straight line that intersects a circle or curve at two points, but which has both end points outside the circle or curve is called a secant. A straight line that links two points on a circle or curve is called a chord. A straight line which touches a circle or curve at one point is called a tangent. A straight line that cuts a circle or curve at one point is a straight line.* For moving diagrams see Related links below this box.
