Legislative History

(1949 Rev., S. 2419; 1957, P.A. 334; P.A. 76-381, S. 9.) History: P.A. 76-381 replaced provision for $100 fine and/or 30 days' imprisonment with statement that violation deemed an infraction. Mere fact that owner's son, admittedly under 16, was operator of car does not ipso facto establish violation by owner. 18 CS 41.
