Ordered that the order reversed, on the law, with costs, and the plaintiffs motion for summary judgment on the issue of liability is denied.
Under the circumstances of this case, the plaintiff failed to establish, as a matter of law, that he was free from comparative negligence, as he failed to state in his initial affidavit that he entered the crosswalk where the accident occurred with reasonable care ( see Thoma v Ronai, 82 NY2d 736, 737; Lopez v Garcia, 67 AD3d 558; Sale v Lee, 49 AD3d 854; Cator v Filipe, 47 AD3d 664; Schmidt v Flickinger Co., 88 AD2d 1068, 1068-1069). The Supreme Court erred in considering the plaintiffs reply affidavit in which he stated that prior to crossing he looked left and right, and saw no vehicle coming ( see David v Bryon, 56 AD3d 413, 414-415; Barrera v MTA Long Is. Bus, 52 AD3d 446). The plaintiffs failure to make a prima facie showing required the denial of the motion, regardless of the sufficiency of the opposition papers ( see Winegrad v New York Univ. Med. Ctr., 64 NY2d 851, 853).
In light of our determination, we need not reach the defendant's remaining contentions.
