A school area limit applies when a child is present. A child is playing outdoors 20 m from the centre line of the road. Does the limit apply?

  1. No, because only a child on the road counts
  2. No, because only a child in a crosswalk counts
  3. Yes, because a child within 30 m of the centre line counts
  4. Yes, but only if the child is walking
Show answer

Correct answer: Yes, because a child within 30 m of the centre line counts
