Driver's Duty When Children Are Present
Drivers of motor vehicles are chargeable with the knowledge that children of tender
years do not possess the traits of mature deliberation, care, and caution of adults. The driver
must increase vigilance if the driver knows, or in the exercise of ordinary care should know,
that children are in, or are likely to come into, the driver's course of travel.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
