Texas law addresses both reasonable-and-prudent speed and prima facie speed limits. A posted number is important, but the citation may also involve conditions, special hazards, or a specially regulated zone.
Check the posted limit and the speed written on the citation.
Weather, traffic, visibility, and roadway conditions can affect the allegation.
School and work-zone notations may change procedures or consequences.
