    The correct answer is letter "D": negligence per se.

    Explanation:

    Negligence per se is a U. S. doctrine that is applied when there has been a clear statute breach. It is applied mainly in cases where the defendant has caused harm to the plaintiff by violating a statue that should have been of knowledge to the defendant.
