ALMA L. LÓPEZ, Justice,
dissenting.
I dissent for the same reason I dissented in Department of Transportation v. Velasco, 40 S.W.3d 702 (Tex.App.—San Antonio 2001, no pet. hist.). I believe that numerous vehicles parked on the highway for extended periods of time constitutes a *718special defect for which the City of Laredo has waived governmental immunity. And as such, the trial judge properly denied the City of Laredo’s plea to the jurisdiction.
