Michael is demonstrating the social-conventional domain of social knowledge as it relates to moral development because he is concerned with following the rules and expectations of society. He knows that it is not fair to jump in line, even if his friends offer to let him, and he is willing to wait his turn even if it means he may not get a ticket.
