What is Negligent Operation in Massachusetts?

According to Massachusetts law, negligent operation or driving to endanger means operating a vehicle in a negligent or reckless manner that endangers the lives and safety of others on the road. In order to convict someone of negligent operation, the prosecution must prove (1) the defendant was driving, (2) the defendant drove on a road that is accessible to the public, and (3) the defendant drove in negligent or reckless manner that may endanger the lives and safety of the public.
