The Appellate Court noted the distinction between negligence per se and strict liability, agreeing with the decision of then Superior Court Judge Berdon in Vingiano v. Frisco, Superior Court, judicial district of New Haven, Docket No. 240142 (June 23, 1986), that “the key difference between the imposition of negligence per se [as set forth in the Restatement (Second) of Torts] and strict liability ... [is that] § 288A of the Restatement (Second) of Torts provide[s] excuses for violations of statutes under the doctrine of negligence per se, while there is no provision for excuses under the doctrine of strict liability.” Gore v. People’s Savings Bank, supra, 35 Conn. App. 132.
