1977App. 2d 203, 209 , 182 N.E.2d 342 , 345: “The statutes of this state prohibit the issuance of a license to a 13-year-old and make it unlawful for him to operate an automobile at this age. 000 We recognize that the failure to have a driver’s license does not of itself necessarily establish a causal connection between the operation of the motor vehicle and the injury.” The court thereafter pointed out that the defendant had no right to be operating a truck because of his age and therefore since all 13-year-olds would fall within the same category no such standard of care existed.
