Negligently Operating a Vehicle Resulting in Injury
(DEFENDANT'S NAME) is charged [in Count ____] with
committing Negligently Operating a Vehicle Resulting in Injury [on or about

evidence, you find beyond a reasonable doubt each of the following elements:
[1. (DEFENDANT'S
NAME);
a. Operated a vehicle in a negligent manner; and
b. This negligence caused [serious] bodily injury to another; and
c. (DEFENDANT'S NAME):
i. [Had sufficient alcohol in [his] [her] body that a
subsequent chemical test showed that [he] [she] had a blood or breath alcohol
concentration of .05 grams or greater at the time of the test;]
ii. [Was under the influence of [alcohol] [a drug] [the combined
influence of alcohol and a drug] to a degree that rendered [him] [her]
incapable of safely operating a vehicle;] or
iii. [Had a blood or breath alcohol concentration of .05 grams or
greater at the time of operation;]]
OR
[2. (DEFENDANT'S
NAME);
a. Operated a vehicle
in a criminally negligent manner; and
b. This negligence caused [serious] bodily injury to another; and
c. Had in [his] [her] body any measurable amount
of a controlled substance.]
After you carefully consider all the evidence in this case,
if you are convinced that each and every element has been proven beyond a
reasonable doubt, then you must find the defendant GUILTY. On the other hand,
if you are not convinced that each and every element has been proven beyond a
reasonable doubt, then you must find the defendant NOT GUILTY.
