UJI 13-1501. Violation of statute.

There [was a] [were] statute[s] in force in this state, at the time of the occurrence in question, which provided that: (Quote or paraphrase the applicable part of the statute in question. If more than one statute is in question, list each statute separately) If you find from the evidence that __________________ (party) violated [this] [any one of these] statute[s], then __________________’s conduct constitutes negligence as a matter of law, [unless you further find that such violation was excusable or justified]. [To legally justify or excuse a violation of a statute, the violator must sustain the burden of showing that the violator did that which might reasonably be expected of a person of ordinary prudence, acting under similar circumstances, who desired to comply with the law.]
