N.C.P.I.—Crim. 236B.10
STREET TAKEOVER. MISDEMEANOR.
The defendant has been charged with street takeover.
For you to find the defendant guilty of this offense, the State must prove
two things beyond a reasonable doubt.
First, that the defendant operated a motor vehicle in a street takeover.
A street takeover1 is defined as the unauthorized taking over of a portion
of highway, street, or public vehicular area by blocking or impeding the regular
flow of traffic with a motor vehicle to perform a motor vehicle stunt,2 contest,
or exhibition.
And Second, that the defendant did so knowingly.
If you find from the evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that on or
about the alleged date the defendant knowingly operated a motor vehicle in a
street takeover, it would be your duty to return a verdict of guilty. If you do
not so find, or have a reasonable doubt as to one or both of these things, it
would be your duty to return a verdict of not guilty.
