Although compliance with the law does not prove the absence of negligence, violation of the law does raise a presumption that the violator was negligent. This is called negligence per se. Jacobs Farm/Del Cabo, Inc. v. Western Farm Service, Inc. (2010) 190 Cal.App.4th 1502, 1526.
The necessary elements of negligence per se are:
plaintiff violated a statute, ordinance, or regulation of a public entity;
the violation proximately caused death or injury to person or property;
the death or injury resulted from an occurrence of the nature which the statute, ordinance, or regulation was designed to prevent; and
the person suffering death or the injury to his person or property was one the class of persons for whose protection the statute, ordinance, or regulation was adopted.
Evid. Code, § 669(a).
Negligence per se is not a distinct cause of action, but merely creates a presumption affecting the standard of care for negligence. Johnson v. Honeywell Int'l Inc. (2009) 179 Cal.App.4th 549, 555.
The defendant may rebut a presumption of negligence but only with evidence establishing a justification or excuse for the statutory violation. Spriesterbach v. Holland (2013) 215 Cal.App.4th 255, 263; 155 Cal.Rptr.3d 306, (internal citation omitted).
