Polybutylene piping was subject to a huge recall. It was used in the 80's in many parts of the US and is prone to sudden failure. It is usually grey in color. The lawsuit and fund which replaced these pipes is no longer available. If you buy the house, you are accepting the risk attached to the piping. There are many other plastic pipes on the market, including PEX, which has a good reputation. Many houses with this piping are still working with no problems. When you do have a problem, it usually means a house re-pipe, which is expensive and invasive. You aren't going to get the owner's of the house to pony up for a re-pipe. If they had wanted to do that,they would have done it already. You have to decide whether you want the house enough and the price is good enough for you to accept the risk of a broken pipe and the cost of the re-pipe should that happen. BTW, even copper piping breaks occasionally, though it usually means a repair of the broken pipe, not a complete repipe of the house.
Speed bumps are a little drastic at this point. there are a few steps that should be completed first. First, is the street maintained by the city or TxDOT? If it's a city maintained street, contact the Houston Public Works Dept and request the following: a speed study, traffic signal phasing study and speed enforcement. If the street is maintained by TxDOT, contact the Houston District Office, located off of IH 10 and request the same.
Now you didn't say that I'm already in the fire. So perhaps the fire is in front of me, so I'd just turn around and run the opposite way.
