PFAILURE TO REMAIN AT THE SCENE OF AN 2835050(A) age 2 of 2


, the defendant in this case, has been charged with the crime of leaving the scene of an accident.

To prove that the defendant committed this crime, the state must prove beyond a reasonable doubt each of the following elements:

  1. the defendant was involved in an accident while driving a vehicle;

  2. the accident resulted in [injury to or the death of another person] [damage to a vehicle driven or attended by another person];

  3. at the time the accident occurred, the defendant knew (his) (her) vehicle was involved in an accident; and

  4. the defendant did not immediately stop at the scene of the accident, or as close to it as possible, and remain until (he) (she) had fulfilled the requirements of AS 28.35.060.


USE NOTE


This instruction should be followed by Pattern Instruction 28.35.050(a) & (b) #2 which describes the requirements of AS 28.35.060.

For further explanation of the phrase “involved in an accident,” see Wylie v. State, 797 P.2d 651 (Alaska 1978).

In Drahosh v. State, 442 P.2d 44 (Alaska 1968), the Alaska Supreme Court provided the following explanation of the relationship between AS 28.35.050(a) and AS 28.35.060(a):

It is apparent from a reading of AS 28.35.050(a) and AS 28.35.060(a) that together they constitute an interlocking statutory scheme proscribing conduct commonly known as “hit and run” driving. The duty to stop and remain at the scene of an accident is set forth in AS 28.35.050(a). The declared and obvious purpose of the stopping requirement is to insure compliance with the mandates of AS 28.35.060(a). The two duties enjoined upon the motorist by this latter section are to identify himself to the injured person and to render to that person all “reasonable assistance” under the circumstances.

442 P.2d at 47-48. However, the two statutes also define separate offenses, namely, failure to remain at the scene of an accident (AS 28.35.050(a)) and failure to render assistance (AS 28.35.060(a)). Id. at 49. Violations of AS 28.35.050 are punishable under AS 28.40.050 as the equivalent of a class B misdemeanor. Violations of AS 28.35.060(a) are punishable as provided in subsections (b) and (c) of that statute.
