a spinning top on a ball....?

I have heard in the past that the further north a hurricane goes, the more it has a tendency to curve northward....that is....at the equator...they go west...and further north...they tend to curve. that being said, irrespective of the high pressure Dean is being steered by...as it leaves that influence, wouldn't the tendency to curve, if there is no other influences...become realized...
I'd love a met's comments on this. perhaps the models do NOT take this in effect....perhaps I don't have a clue what I'm talking about...
