Arkansas is entering the 21st Century?  Shocking.

It's 65 south of Ashdown and has been for years. Given Arkansas' liking for low speed limits, I was a bit surprised when I first saw it.

Actually, in my opinion, Arkansas likes the higher speed limits...
Look at Walton Blvd in Bentonville... The speed limit is 50 MPH on US 71 Business (Walton Blvd with a 5 lane section [continuous center turn lane aka the devil] with development on all sides).  It's all development, with a 5 lane/center turn lane... And all 50 MPH... It scares me at time.

US 62 East (Hudson Road) in Rogers is 45 MPH... It's a 5 laner with a center turn lane.  I fight for my life trying to turn off of it... if that semi or car or truck ventures to the left or right a few inches in their lane, I'm a gonner!

Arkansas (city or state) needs to reevaluate their speed limits in urban areas, because it borderlines on ridiculous.  And start f(&%&) implanting medians!  Medians are your friend!  Good grief!

New Hope Road is 50MPH, even after AHTD gave it back to the city. I have a friend who was in a severe wreck a couple months ago, which he blames on the speed limit.

But if you hate 62 now, wait until it's widened to Gateway.

Passaic Ave. is a suburban five-laner in Fairfield-West Caldwell, NJ, speed limit 45 but many people go 55-60. I've never seen an accident along it, and this is a state that doesn't do well on TWLTL.
