AMI 803 Automobiles—Responsibility of Person Signing Application of Child for Operator's Li...

(Plaintiff) claims damages from (defendant) for a minor's [negligence] [willful misconduct] while driving a motor vehicle where (defendant) signed the minor's application for an operator's permit or license, and (plaintiff) has the burden of proving each of five essential propositions:

First, that [he] [she] [it] has sustained damages;

Second, that (defendant) signed the application of (minor) for an [instruction permit] [learner's license] [intermediate driver's license];

Third, that (minor) was under the age of 18 at the time of the occurrence;

Fourth, that (minor) was [negligent] [engaged in willful misconduct] when driving the motor vehicle on the street or highway; and

Fifth, that such [negligence] [willful misconduct] of (minor) in the operation of the motor vehicle was a proximate cause of the [injuries] [and] [damages] sustained by (plaintiff).

[If you find from the evidence in this case that each of these propositions has been proved, then your verdict should be for (plaintiff); but if, on the other hand, you find from the evidence that any of these propositions has not been proved, then your verdict should be for (defendant).]
