$6.4 Million Awarded to Man Injured Getting onto Bus
A California man has been awarded $6.4 million in a lawsuit against the city of Roseville, Calif. and a Metro bus company for an injury he suffered while getting on one of the company buses in 2008. The quadriplegic man was being lifted up into one of the buses when his wheelchair rolled back off the platform, causing his head to strike the pavement, the suit stated. The man suffered severe brain injuries as a result. The city will pay 17 percent of the damages and MV Transportation, which operates the paratransit system and MetroAccess, will cover the other 83 percent.
