OPINION ON APPELLANT’S PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW
DUNCAN, Judge.
The appellant was convicted of driving while intoxicated (hereinafter referred to as “DWI”) resulting in serious bodily injury to another as proscribed by Art. 6701/ -1(b), (f) V.A.C.S.1 The appellant waived a jury trial and pursuant to a plea agreement entered a plea of nolo contendere to the charge.2 The information charged appellant with DWI and included an “enhancement paragraph” alleging another person suffered serious bodily injury as a result of the offense. The court sentenced the appellant to sixty-three days confinement in the Tarrant County Jail and a fine of $600.00.
The appellant’s conviction was affirmed in an unpublished opinion by the 2nd Court of Appeals. Wilson v. State, (Tex.App.—Fort Worth, No. 2-86-227-CR, delivered June 11, 1987) In affirming his conviction the Court of Appeals rejected the appellant’s argument and held that DWI is not a lesser included offense of DWI resulting in serious bodily injury to another. Therefore, according to the Court of Appeals, an allegation that serious bodily injury was suffered by a person as a consequence of the offense of DWI is in the nature of an enhancement of punishment allegation statutorily authorized by Art. 6701/-1(f), V.A. C.S. We granted the appellant’s first ground of review to examine the court of appeals’ decision. We also granted a related ground of review to consider the court of appeals’ conclusion that the trial court did not err when it denied the appellant’s motion to quash. We will affirm the judgment of the court of appeals.
When the appellant entered his plea, the following transpired:
The Court: Can we at least enter a plea on the case?
[Defense attorney]: Yes, Judge, I believe I entered a plea previously on behalf of my client.
The Court: Can we get him to plead?
[Defense attorney]: Sure.
The Court: Mr. Wilson, do you know what you’re charged with in this offense?
The Defendant: Yes, Sir.
The Court: What are you charged with?
The Defendant: DWI.
The Court: Serious bodily injury?
The Defendant: Yes, Sir.
The Court: And how do you plead to it?
The Defendant: Guilty, Sir.
The Court: All right. Let’s proceed.
[Prosecutor]: Excuse me, your honor. I believe the agreed plea was nolo conten-dere.
[Defense attorney]: That’s correct. It would be a no contest plea, Judge, for the record.
The Court: Well, it’s already in the record, so let’s proceed. Let’s proceed, please.
[120]*120Thereafter, the prosecutor completed the plea by questioning the appellant, who had previously been placed under oath. The colloquy which took place between appellant and the State’s attorney dealt solely with the offense of DWI. No questions were propounded in regard to any serious bodily injury which may have been the direct consequence of the DWI offense. Immediately afterwards, however, the state presented evidence that another had suffered serious bodily injury as a result of this accident that occurred while the appellant was driving while intoxicated. The trial court then found the defendant guilty and, consistent with the plea agreement, assessed the appellant’s punishment as previously noted.
Basically, the appellant claims that DWI and DWI resulting in serious bodily injury are two distinct offenses. Under the appellant’s reasoning, since he plead nolo conten-dere to only the DWI charge, and the court accepted his plea, he was found guilty of and convicted of DWI and not DWI resulting in serious bodily injury. Accordingly, under the appellant’s view, he was necessarily acquitted of the greater offense— DWI resulting in serious bodily injury. Therefore, the argument proceeds, that to punish him for the offense of DWI resulting in serious bodily injury violates the double jeopardy provisions of the State and Federal Constitutions.3
In response, the State obviously argues that DWI and DWI resulting in serious bodily injury are not separate offenses. According to the State, an allegation of serious bodily injury is merely an issue that enlarges the available range of punishment.
The appellant draws authority for his position from the language in Rivera v. State, 716 S.W.2d 68, 71 (Tex.App.—Dallas 1986 pdr ref'd). In Rivera the Fifth Court of Appeals indicated that causing serious bodily injury while driving while intoxicated is the greater offense and DWI is the lesser offense. To the contrary, the State asserts that this Court should adopt the opposite position taken by second court of appeals in Bucek v. State, 724 S.W.2d 129 (Tex.App.—Fort Worth 1987 no writ) and Scharbrough v. State, 732 S.W.2d 445 (Tex.App.—Fort Worth 1987 pet. ref'd). In both of these cases the court of appeals held that DWI and DWI resulting in serious bodily injury are not separate offenses. For the reasons to be stated, we agree with the State and consequently conclude that DWI is not a lesser included offense of DWI resulting in serious bodily injury. Thus, the court of appeals was correct in its conclusion that the allegation of serious bodily injury is an enhancement provision and proof of it is to be reserved for the punishment phase of a DWI trial in the event of conviction.4
Art. 37.09, V.A.C.C.P. reads as follows: An offense is a lesser included offense if:
(1) it is established by proof of the same or less than all the facts required to establish the commission of the offense charged;
(2) it differs from the offense charged only in the respect that a less serious [121]*121injury or risk of injury to the same person, property, or public interest suffices to establish its commission;
(3) it differs from the offense charged only in the respect that a less culpable mental state suffices to establish its commission; or
(4) it consists of an attempt to commit the offense charged or an otherwise included offense.
Assuming all of these statutory conditions are met and the evidence was in such a state to comply with the Royster/Aguilar test requiring the submission of a charge on lesser included offenses there would still be one inherent condition precedent which would prevent DWI from being a lesser included offense:5 causing serious bodily injury as a direct result of committing the offense of DWI would have to be an offense in and of itself, and we find that it is not.
After Art. 6701Z-l(a) states the relevant definitions of the terminology applicable to the offense of driving while intoxicated, section (b) defines the substantive offense of DWI as follows:
A person commits an offense if the person is intoxicated while driving or operating a motor vehicle in a public place....
Section (f) dealing with one suffering serious bodily injury as a direct result of a defendant committing the offense of DWI in pertinent part reads:
If it is shown on the trial of a person punished for an offense under Subsection (c), (d), or (e) of this article that the person committed the offense and as a direct result of the offense another person suffered serious bodily injury, the minimum term of confinement for the offense is increased by 60 days and the minimum and maximum fines for the offense are increased by $500. [emphasis added]
The court of appeals, in rejecting appellant’s contention, relied on its opinion in Bucek v. State, supra. In Bucek, the identical assertion was made as in the case at bar. Justice Keltner, writing for the court in that case, after making a comparison of the statutory language in the DWI statute to pertinent language found in the penal code, observed:
The language used to define each offense enumerated in the Penal Code begins with a statement, ‘a person commits an offense if_’ Likewise, the language prescribing extraordinary punishment for an offense because of aggravating factors consistently begins with the phrase, ‘if it be shown on the trial....’ As a result, the conclusion is inescapable that subsection (b) defines the offense of driving while intoxicated. Subsection (c) prescribes the ordinary punishment for that offense and subsections (d), (e) and (f) prescribe extraordinary punishment which is available in the event of certain aggravating factors, [footnote omitted] Based on that reasoning, the court in
Bucek concluded:
[T]he provisions of TEX.REV.CIV. STAT.ANN. art. 6701Z-l(f) (Vernon Supp.1987) provides an enhancement of punishment prescribed for the offense of driving while intoxicated and does not define, of and in itself, a separate offense. As a result, article 6701Z -1(b) cannot be a lesser included offense of article 6701Z — 1(f).
We find the analysis and reasoning by the court of appeals in Bucek to be both persuasive and sound. In Bucek the court of appeals was actually alluding to the legislative scheme of classifying offenses. The elements of each offense specified in the penal code are prefaced with the phrase “a person commits an offense.” Aggravated offenses acquire their status as a greater offense partially because the legislature required the commission of the basic of[122]*122fense, added additional aggravating elements and then identified the conduct as a separate offense by simply stating “a person commits an offense.”
For example, the elements of the basic kidnapping offense (V.T.C.A. Penal Code, § 20.03) are prefaced by “(a) A person commits an offense if he intentionally or knowingly abducts another person.” [emphasis added] The succeeding statute (V.T.C.A. Penal Code, § 20.04) — aggravated kidnapping — is prefaced with identical introductory language and follows by specifically identifying the aggravating elements necessary to establish the commission of the greater offense. The final paragraphs in both the kidnapping offense and the aggravated kidnapping offense simply attaches the authorized penalty by designating the degree felony for each offense. Obvious from the statutory scheme is that both the basic and aggravated offenses are separate and distinct penal violations and the existence of an aggravating factor is to be resolved at the guilt/innocence phase of the criminal trial, with the exception of the punishment issue engrafted into the offense of aggravated kidnapping.6
This relatively simple statutory scheme is duplicated throughout the penal code and the Controlled Substances Act.7 That is, each time conduct is identified with the preliminary phrase “A person commits an offense if ...,” the attendant prohibition is indeed a separate and distinct offense as opposed to a punishment enhancing measure.
The foregoing observations concerning the designation of substantive offenses does not carry over to the designation of statutorily authorized enhanced penalties.8 Again, as Justice Keltner in Bucek, supra, observed, extraordinary punishment or enhancement provisions commence with the language, “If it be shown on the trial, of..,” rather than the semantically inappropriate “a person commits an offense.” For instance, V.T.C.A. Penal Code, §§ 12.-42 and 12.43, which specifically deals with penalties for repeat and habitual offenders, commences each enhancement provision with the phrase: “If it be shown on the trial of ...,” thus, the statutory scheme that is consistent throughout the penal code clearly delineates between conduct that is intended to be an offense and conduct that subjects one to enhanced punish[123]*123ment, proof of which is reserved for the punishment phase of the criminal proceeding.
Consistent with the adoption of the language identifying offenses (“a person commits an offense”) the DWI statute also adopts the language of the Penal Code identifying enhanced punishments (“If it be shown on the trial”). For example, the provisions authorizing enhanced punishment for repeat offenders in art. 6701 — Í (d) and (e), supra are each prefaced with “If it is shown on the trial....” As previously noted, this is virtually the same language employed to introduce the availability of enhanced punishment in the Penal Code.
The statute in question, Art. 6701-1 (f), supra, is prefaced with language virtually identical to that found in the previously identified punishment statutes. The consistent restriction of the prefatory language “if it be shown on the trial” to matters dealing only with punishment compel the conclusion that a DWI resulting in serious bodily injury to another is a punishment issue.
Art. 67011 (f), supra, continues, however, and includes the following procedurally descriptive language: “of a person punished for an offense under Subsection (c), (d), or (e)....” Such language clearly denotes that before subsection (f) is to be invoked an individual must be convicted of a DWI. If the prescribed conditions exists as set out in subsection (f), the State may seek the extraordinary punishment that such subsection provides. This is an issue which is to be resolved at the punishment stage of the proceeding, and the appended punishment provided for causing serious bodily injury to another person as the direct result of driving while intoxicated is an enhancement provision.
Although the present case is concerned with only the relationship between a DWI and a DWI resulting in serious bodily injury as authorized by Art. 67011-1, supra, Art. 67011-(f), supra contains another enhancement provision that bolsters the preceding conclusion. The statute also authorizes additional punishment if the intoxicated driver is found in possession of an open container of an alcoholic beverage. Because of the identical prefatory language, if the appellant’s position were to prevail then we would be compelled to also conclude that DWI is a lesser included offense of being in possession of an open container of an alcoholic beverage. Such a result is untenable.
Accordingly, we hold that Art. 67011 -1(f), supra, is not a separate offense; therefore, the offense of DWI is not a lesser included offense. Thus, appellant is being punished for driving while intoxicated and causing serious bodily injury was not placed in double jeopardy in violation of the prohibitions contained in the State and Federal Constitutions. Appellant’s ground for review is overruled.
As to the ground for review claiming that the trial court erred in failing to quash the information because it contained the allegation of serious bodily injury as an enhancement count rather than a separate offense, for the reasons stated it is likewise overruled.
The judgment of the trial court and the court of appeals is therefore affirmed.

[125]*125(1) the conviction was a final conviction under the provisions of Subsections (g) and (h) of this article and was for an offense committed more than 10 years before the offense for which the person is being tried was committed; and
(2) the person has not been convicted of an offense under Subdivision (2), Subsection (a), Section 19.05, Penal Code, or Article 6701Z-1, or Article 6701Z-2, Revised Statutes, committed within 10 years immediately preceding the date on which the offense for which the person is being tried was committed.
(j) On conviction of an offense under this article or an offense under Subdivision (2), Subsection (a), Section 19.05, Penal Code, the court shall impose a cost of $15 on a defendant if, subsequent to the arrest of the defendant, a law enforcement agency visually recorded the defendant with an electronic device.
