Any bridge over Lake Ray Hubbard is in the City of Dallas, along with all of the lake. However, we've got too many other problems to ever have the time to work traffic enforcement on those bridges. So, about two or three years ago Rowlett petitioned the City of Dallas to be allowed to enforce traffic violations on our bridges and Dallas subsequently allowed them to do so.

They said that the reason that they "needed" the ability to enforce the traffic laws is that too many people are speeding on the bridges because they knew Dallas PD was never there, and by the time these speeders entered into Rowlett they were a danger to their citizens. You might still see Dallas squad cars traveling on the bridges but that's probably due to them being on the way to a wreck on a bridge. It's funny how Rowlett will work traffic enforcement on our bridges but never the wrecks. ;-)
