1. No person may drive any vehicle equipped with solid rubber tires at a speed greater 
than a maximum of ten miles [16.09 kilometers] per hour.
2. No person may drive a vehicle over any bridge or other elevated structure constituting 
a part of a highway at a speed which is greater than the maximum speed which can be 
maintained without hazard to such bridge or structure, when such structure is 
signposted as provided in this section.
3. The director or other authority having jurisdiction may conduct an investigation of any 
public bridge, causeway, or viaduct and if the director finds that such structure cannot 
safely withstand the traveling of vehicles at the speed otherwise permissible under this 
chapter, such director or other authority shall determine and declare the maximum 
speed of vehicles such structure can withstand. The director or other authority shall 
cause or permit signs to be erected and maintained at a distance of one hundred feet 
[30.48 meters] from each end of such structure. Such signs must state the maximum 
speed permissible over such structure. The findings and determination of the director 
or other authority are conclusive evidence of the maximum speed which can be 
maintained without hazard to any such structure.
