BRACKETTVILLE, Texas—Katherine Vasquez is thanking her lucky stars.
Almost home after a morning walk with her dog, she heard a vehicle moving way too fast for the 30 mph speed limit. A quarter-mile away, an SUV was bearing down on her location so fast she barely had time to run across the road toward her house, frantically calling her dog to follow.
