10歳の児童が運転する自転車と車の衝突事故で、自転車側の過失が100%と認定された。事故は信号機のある交差点で、車は徐行しながら進入した際、赤信号を無視した自転車が飛び出したためだ。判断のポイントは、車の運転が慎重であったこと、児童が信号を確認せずに運転したこと、事故の予見可能性に関する裁判所の見解。改正道路交通法では、16歳以上の違反運転に厳罰が科され、交通事故の増加を背景にした施策である。

In a collision accident between a bicycle driven by a 10-year-old child and a car, the bicycle was found to be 100% at fault. The incident occurred at an intersection with traffic lights, where the car was proceeding cautiously but the bicycle ran a red light and dashed out. The key points in the judgment were that the driver’s operation of the car was careful, the child did not check the traffic signals while riding, and the court’s perspective on the foreseeability of the accident. Under the amended Road Traffic Act, strict penalties are imposed for traffic violations committed by individuals aged 16 and older, in response to the increase in traffic accidents.
