6-6-1: SPEED - GENERALLY:
No vehicle may be driven upon any highway of this city at a speed which is greater than is reasonable and proper with regard to traffic conditions and the use of the highway, or endangers the safety of any person or property. The fact that the speed of a vehicle does not exceed the applicable maximum speed limit does not relieve the driver from the duty to decrease speed when approaching and crossing an intersection, when approaching and going around a curve, when approaching a hill crest, when traveling upon any narrow or winding roadway, or when special hazard exists with respect to pedestrians or other traffic or by reason of weather or highway conditions. Speed must be decreased as may be necessary to avoid colliding with any person or vehicle on or entering the highway in compliance with legal requirements and the duty of all persons to use due care. In the event of a charge of violation of this section, the complaint and the summons or notice to appear shall specify the speed at which the defendant is alleged to have driven, also the prima facie speed applicable within the district or at the location.
