In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, the plaintiff appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (McCarty, J.), entered June 12, 2006, which denied her motion pursuant to CPLR 4404 (a) to set aside a jury verdict in favor of the defendants MTA Long Island Bus, Metropolitan Suburban Bus Authority, and Pantelis D. Kapsalis on the issue of liability as against the weight of the evidence and for a new trial on that issue.
Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.
The plaintiffs contention that the jury verdict was inconsistent is not preserved for appellate review, since she did not raise
In the instant case, applying the Supreme Court’s charge regarding the broad duties and general obligations of a driver, the jury reasonably concluded that the defendant bus driver was negligent in the operation of the bus, but that such negligence was not a proximate cause of the accident (see Abre v Sherman, 36 AD3d 725 [2007]; Serra v Rivieccio, 4 AD3d 521, 522 [2004]; Rubin v Pecoraro, 141 AD2d at 526-527). Miller, J.P., Ritter, Covello and McCarthy, JJ., concur.
