Under the Road Traffic Act, which is NOT a person for whose safety a police officer must take appropriate measures upon finding them?
💡 Hint
The people a police officer must take protective measures for are listed in the law as those who have difficulty avoiding danger on their own (Article 11(6) of the Road Traffic Act). Check each case against the age criteria (infant, child, elderly person) and whether a guardian or aid is present.
Answer: ②
Explanation
Article 11(6) of the Road Traffic Act lists children playing on busy roads, infants walking without a guardian, people who cannot see walking without a white cane or assistance dog, and elderly people having difficulty walking as those a police officer must protect. A high school student walking alone on the sidewalk is not among them.
