Comments:The 'reasonable person standard' is a legal criteria that is applied both in criminal and in civil law. It is a legal fiction,and essentially consists of an idealized version of how a reasonable person would act under given circumstances. As a legal standard, it does not exist in Civil/Roman/Hispanic law, and therefore, a literal translation of the Common-Law/Anglo law is appropriate. See Juan Pablo Pérez-León Acevedo, The inconvenience of the reasonable person standard in criminal law, Derecho PUCP, Revista de la Facultad de Derecho, No. 73, 2014, pp. 505-509
