Why would they?

You drive to the conditions and the ability to see the road ahead.

You are trying to legislate for stupidity - which seems to be the way these days.

I suggest you send your CV to Wacky Jacqui and see if she has a job for you.

Speed limit signs before and after every "tricky" bit of road for the Hard of Thinking - no thanks.

Oh and some countries (NZ and the US spring to mind) DO routinely mark the recommended speed for deceptive corners (as well as putting up the kind of markers we do) but they are guides rather than limits.
