After reading the article, the law should be changed. It should read under 18 or just make it a generalized law like "if any bystander witnesses a crime (any crime), they are required by law to report it to the appropriate authorities." Then they just make it a minor crime that the max punishment is 11 months 29 days. Just like DUI.
