To convict a person of operating a vehicle with an alcohol concentration equivalent to at least .08 but less than .15 g/100mL of blood, only the scientific measurement in the lab report is relevant and not evidence of visible intoxication. A blood test that presented only a range from .07 to .084 g/100mL is insufficient to support a conviction.
