314 Or App 478(2021) 479 PER CURIAM Defendant appeals a judgment of conviction for reck- lessly endangering another person, arguing that the trial court plainly erred by failing to sua sponte instruct the jury that it must agree as to which of several driving maneuvers formed the basis of its verdict, and which of several other drivers on the road were endangered by that conduct. We affirm. To prove the crime of recklessly endangering another person, the state may properly rely on defendant’s course of driving which put all of the other drivers at a potential risk of harm—which may involve more than one individual, specific maneuver. Accordingly, the trial court did not err, plainly or otherwise, in failing to instruct the jury as to concurrence. Affirmed.
