¶1We find no error in the trial court approving a jury verdict finding the appellant-defendant guilty of vehicular homicide as proscribed by Section 782.071 Florida Statutes, (1981) even though the jury acquitted the defendant of manslaughter by driving a vehicle while intoxicated as proscribed by Section 860.01(2) Florida Statutes (1981).
