Congestion Pricing . . . Potentially Deadly?

You’re a New Yorker — so you stand next to people . . . get real — it’s sink or swim here:

A crowded subway platform and hundreds of aggressive commuters “pushing and shoving” their way on and off trains was a deadly combination for a 63-year-old woman who fell to the tracks, hit her head and died from her injuries.

Earlier this month, the woman’s daughter filed a lawsuit against the city and the MTA, blaming them for not doing enough to protect her mother.

On May 22, 2006, Maria Navarro, who walked with the help of a cane, exited a train at the Roosevelt Avenue-74th Street subway station in Jackson Heights, Queens, and was overcome by the crush of people.

She fell to the tracks and died a month later.
