A judge has told a taxi driver her courage had to be admired after surviving two accidents in which she had twice been injured and in both collisions had seen her taxi damaged beyond repair. Ms O’Reilly, who appeared with Lawlor O’Reilly solicitors, said the other driver in both accidents had cut across the path of Ms McMahon’s taxi. She said liability had been conceded in both claims and the court was being asked to assess damages. Ms McMahon sued Arthur Oliver Ryan, Rathbeale Road, Swords, and Martin Mann, of Hampton Street, Balbriggan, Co Dublin, following the accidents at Old Airport Road, Santry, and Balheary Road, Swords. “This is a lady who was very genuinely and very badly affected psychologically and has suffered quite extensive physical injuries,” Judge Groarke told her barrister Ms O’Reilly.
