1930Here we have a statutory rule of conduct to which all motorists similarly situated must conform, and which casts upon the motorists “the duty of exercising greater care than is ordinarily required of them.” (Donat v. Dillon, 192 Cal. 426, 430 [ 221 Pac. 193, 195 ].) But we have not been cited any statute or rule of decision which determines what is a breach of this duty under any state of facts.

2021People v. Rojas (1962) 57 Cal.2d 676 , is not applicable because in contrast to the case before us where defense counsel did not request an updated probation report, in Rojas, “counsel for defendants requested that the matter again be referred to the probation officer for a new and current report.
