Apologies in advance if anybody has brought this question up before.
On US 67-167 northbound / southbound in the Searcy area, there are no curve warning signs and also no reflectors marking the two curves once one passes exit 42 heading northbound or exit 44 heading southbound. The curves are rather sharp and I would say that for some vehicles, 65 mph would be the maximum safe speed on those curves, especially when the road is wet. If the signs were there at one time, they must have been knocked over / damaged and never replaced.
Any reason why the signs don't exist?

Speed limit is for driving at optimal conditions

Go to idrivearkansas.com, and go to the Contact area (near the right side)... There is a Report A Problem...  I've had varying success with that.

Filled out their form and the curve signs were installed within a week or so. They also stated that they will be restriping the section in question soon.
