A taxi driver in Manhattan is sitting in his car passing time until someone needs a ride. Unbeknownst to the taxi driver, a man in a nearby alley is robbing two people. After the robber has completed the crime, he runs around the corner and jumps into the taxi. The robber tells the driver to floor it, and to emphasize his point, he puts a gun to the taxi driver's head. The driver puts the car in gear and takes off. Meanwhile, one of the robbery victims has followed the robber to the taxi and is running next to it to try to get in the cab. He is yelling something to the effect of, "Stop thief!" The taxi driver looks in the mirror and notices that the robber is looking at the victim chasing the taxi and figures it is his chance to hightail it!. The driver slams on the brakes and jumps out of the cab. When he slammed on the brakes, the robber in the car was injured; however, the taxi, without the driver, continued forward. The driverless taxi ran off the street and up onto the sidewalk where it struck a poor woman and her three children, injuring all three. The woman sued the taxi driver for their injuries resulting from the driver jumping out of a moving vehicle. Please discuss the results of the action by the woman and her children against the taxi driver
