Final answer:

Courts generally limit strict liability to misdemeanors affecting public welfare, health, and safety.


Explanation:

True. Strict liability is often applied to misdemeanors that are regulatory crimes or crimes affecting public health, safety, and welfare. These offenses do not require proof of criminal intent, focusing on the act itself. For example, violating a vehicle code provision by speeding is a strict liability offense where intent is not a factor.
