§ 10.401. Determinations

The city council has determined:

(a)

Speed limits set forth in this article shall be effective at all hours, except where otherwise provided herein, when appropriate signs giving notice thereof are erected at such parts of such highways; provided, however, that nothing in this article shall be construed as attempting to modify or alter the basic rule set forth in V.A.C.S., Art. 6701d, Section 166(a)(1), nor to authorize for any class of vehicle in excess of the maximum values set forth for the class of vehicle in subsection (a), paragraphs (2), (3) and (4) of such section, and;

(b)

No special hazard exists that requires lower speed for compliance with subsection (a) of V.A.C.S., Art. 6701d, Section 166, the speed of any vehicle not in excess of the limits herein established shall be lawful, but any speed in excess of the limits herein specified and established shall be prima facie evidence that the speed is not reasonable or prudent and that it is unlawful.

(Ord. No. 21886-A, Sec. 2, adopted 3-4-86)
