  Current Law 
Fighting the Skate Law Tell your Dallas City Council Representative what you think of this outdated law! Send Mail to ALL City Council members and the Mayor here See us on KDFW/FOX 4 Currently it is Illegal to skate in the roadway according to Dallas City Code. The good part is that this is a rarely enforced Ordinance - the bad part is that it is enforced around White Rock Lake where the existing bike trail is in horrible condition. The only place in Dallas that anyone has been stopped due to the Ord. has been by an Officer Skidmore of the DPD while they were skating around White Rock Lake on the roadway... A road which has a 20 mph speed limit. We at Pegasus Flyers Inline Skate Club are working with the Dallas City Council to change that law. Here is the first draft of the proposed ordinance Tell us what you think of it Shouldn't Dallas Embrace the New Technology Pro Skate Laws in Other States and Cities Even POLICE in other Countries are on Skates The Skating Police of Puerto Rico Skaters seek to change law Dallas Morning News 10/04/99 Nursing groups urge city to keep ban...
