Ephrem J. Wertenteil, New York, for appellant.

Heidell, Pittoni, Murphy & Bach, LLP, New York (Daniel S. Ratner of counsel), for respondents.

Order, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Elizabeth A. Taylor, J.), entered on or about August 15, 2017, which denied plaintiff's motion for partial summary judgment on the issue of liability, unanimously reversed, on the law, without costs, and the motion granted.

Plaintiff made a prima facie showing of negligence on the part of defendant Pascarelli by submitting Pascarelli's deposition testimony, which stated that the accident at issue occurred when he moved the backhoe into a lane of moving traffic (see Vehicle and Traffic Law § 1163 [a]; Flores v City of New York, 66 AD3d 599 [1st Dept 2009]). Plaintiff was not required to demonstrate her own freedom from comparative negligence nor to show that defendants' negligence was the sole proximate cause to be entitled to summary judgment as to defendants' liability (see Rodriguez v City of New York, 31 NY3d 312 [2018]; Derix v Port Auth. of N.Y. & N.J., 162 AD3d 522 [1st Dept 2018]; Bermeo v Time Warner Entertainment Co., 162 AD3d 404 [1st Dept 2018]).
