Multistate Bar Examination Practice Question

A 12-year-old was driving a car with the knowledge and consent of their parent and struck a pedestrian at a marked crosswalk. What standard of care should be used to evaluate whether the 12-year-old acted negligently?

  • The standard of care is determined by the driving skills and experience the 12-year-old has demonstrated.

  • The 12-year-old’s age and inability to legally drive prevent liability for negligent actions.

  • The 12-year-old’s conduct is assessed against the behavior expected of a child with similar age, intelligence, and experience.

  • The 12-year-old’s conduct is evaluated using the same standard applied to adults due to the responsibilities associated with driving.
