Does electricity flowing in cables experience centrifugal forces?

I imagine them as fast cars on a highway, when the cable is straight that’s not a problem, but when the cable has bends and stuff?

Unless I am mistaken, feeling centrifugal forces should be in the domain of gravity (i.e. relativity). But those effects haven’t been so far explained when it comes to quantum particles, i.e. quantum theory and gravity are still not joined. So, perhaps, there is no good answer to your question. But if there is such an effect, it is beyond what is currently observable, I should say.

I might be completely wrong here.
