Bronx Supreme Court. On July 19, 2004, Ruth K., a 71 year-old retiree, rode an NYC Transit Authority Access-A-Ride minibus, while sitting in her husband's old wheelchair. The driver drove for a few blocks in the Bronx. A nearby parked car pulled away from curb, and cut off the minibus. The driver suddenly stopped the bus. Ruth went flying onto the floor, fracturing several parts of her body. Ruth sued the bus company, MTA, and the NYC Transit Authority.
