Case Details
Ina McCartney, 81, was injured when a taxi driver allegedly failed to place the cab’s gear in park, causing it to roll. The driver let go of Ms. McCartney’s arm, causing her to fall and suffer serious injuries, including a displaced fracture of the femor and contusions on her left elbow and knee. The injuries required surgery, as well as ongoing physical and occupational therapy. She continues to require a walker, as well as supervision to prevent another fall.
Additional Notes
The driver in this case made two crucial, and completely avoidable, errors: failed to safely park his cab and failed to take reasonable care to prevent Ms. McCartney from falling. Rainier’s insurer agreed to a $350,000 settlement.
