Conn. Civ. Jury Instr. 3.7-3
Statutory Negligence - Speeding
We have a statute that provides that no person shall operate any motor vehicle upon any highway
at such a rate of speed as to endanger the life of any occupant of that motor vehicle or at a rate of
speed greater than fifty-five miles per hour. If you find that the defendant operated a motor
vehicle upon a highway either at such a speed as to endanger the life of any occupant of that
motor vehicle or at a rate of speed greater than fifty-five miles per hour, then you will find the
defendant is negligent.
