Wisconsin Supreme Court January 30, 1973, No. 223 (Riemer v. Crayton)

Per Curiam.

Not every violation of a statute is negligence per se. Only where the statute is a “safety statute,” designed to protect a class of persons from a par*756ticular type of harm, is a violation negligence per se, and then only when the violation results in that type of harm to someone in the protected class.
