May 8, 1975
The Hon. Mayor and
City of La Porte
P. 0. Box 1115
City Commissioners
La Porte, Texas 77571
Dear Mrs. Cline and Gentlemen:
At your regular meeting of May 5, 1975, you requested my opinion
on the legality of the City of La Porte installing "speed bumpers"
on N. 11th, N. 12th and N. 13th Streets, in La Porte Terrace
Subdivision, in the City of La Porte, at the request of a number
of the residents of the area. As I understand it, such "speed
bumpers" would consist of a strip of asphalt as much as eight
inches (8") high and twelve inches (12") wide, poured across the
travel portion of the road, requiring traffic to slow to 15 or
• 20 m.p.h, in order to prevent injury to both a car and its occu-
pants; such "speed bumpers" being installed to deliberately slow
down traffic.
I have briefed the law on the question, and I find no Texas
statutes either permitting or prohibiting "speed bumpers."
Furthermore, I find no Texas cases on "speed bumpers" as such,
but I have found numerous Texas cases concerning the liability of
cities for damages for injuries caused by defective or unsafe
conditions of its streets and public ways.
Generally speaking, a municipality is not liable in damages for
an injury caused by the defective or unsafe condition of its
streets, sidewalks, or public ways, unless the condition was
caused by the City or under its authority, or there was a negli-
gent failure of the City to cure the defect after actual or con-
structive notice of its existence. For instance, the City of
Waco was held liable in a case which involved a 6" tree stump
just outside the travelled portion of the street, a natural
obstruction which the Court held that the City should have been
aware and should have been aware of the fact that a car might
veer over to that part of the street and hit the stump. The
City of Austin has been held liable for damages, once in a case
involving painting of a stripe on a street, and in another case
involving the temporary closing of a street to allow a street
. - dance.

Here, the erection and maintenance of "speed bumpers" would be a
deliberate act by the City in creating an obstruction in the
street. Although the Texas courts have not had to face a "speed
bumpers" case, such cases have been presented in other juris-
dictions. Local governments have been held liable for the main-
tenance of "bumpers" in streets intending to warn drivers of
dangerous intersections, but which injured reasonably careful
drivers proceeding at legal speed. It is further been held that
local governments erecting obstructions in the streets customarily
have a duty to illuminate the same at night so as to protect
drivers. These cases arose in Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri.
In addition, it is interesting to note that many of the Texas
cases on obstructions, as well as the above mentioned out-of-
state cases on speed bumpers, arose before the adoption of the
Texas Tort Claims Act, and also the recently enacted Texas
Comparative Negligence Statute. These two recent statutory
enactments each further weakened the position of cities in negli-
gence actions.
In view of the foregoing, it is my opinion that the erection and
• operation of speed. bumpers on travelled City streets, being a
deliberate creation of an obstruction by the City, would unduly
expose the City of La Porte to liability for damages to person
and property. It is therefore my strong recommendation that the
City Commission not authorize this method of traffic control. I
have discussed this matter by telephone with Mr. Riley Fletcher,
General Counsel, Texas Municipal League, in Austin, and he states
that TML ha,s always strongly recommended to cities that they not
install "speed bumpers."
However, should the City Commission determine that the potential
usefulness of speed bumpers as a method of traffic control out-
weighs the potential risk, and therefore allow their installation,
I would recommend that, in order to place the City in the best
possible position, that the following precautions be taken, to-wit:
(1) The bumper should be painted with an orange
reflective paint, so as to be readily visible
and distinguishable from the surface of the
main pavement;
(2) A warning sign of the existence of the speed
bumper should be erected on the side of the
road, at the immediate location of the speed
bumper;
• `
The Hon. Mayor & City Commissioners Page 3
• City of La Porte 5-8-75
(3) A speed limit sign, probably a 15 or 20 m.p.h., but
a low enough speed to prevent injury to person and
property going over the speed bumper, should be
erected a sufficient distance preceding the speed
bumper;
(4) The speed bumper and the warning sign should be
illuminated at night;
(5) The height and width of the speed bumper should
be no greater than absolutely necesarry to
accomplish the purpose.
As to the speed limit below 30 m.p.h., recent amendment to Article
6701d, Section 166, et seq, allows a municipality to establish a
speed limit below 30 m.p.h., following an engineering and traffic
study of the individual street involved, resulting in a finding.
that the maximum safe speed is a speed below 30 m.p.h. A speed
limit ordinance based upon this study must then be passed, and
. the caption published.
If I may be of further assistance on this matter, please advise.
Yours very truly,
Gel/ .
