MICHAEL JORDAN, Respondent, v. CITY OF NEW YORK, Defendant, and CHAPMAN ESPINOZA, Appellant.

This action arises from a collision between plaintiff's automobile and that of defendant Espinoza at the intersection of Seymour and Givan Avenues in the Bronx. The evidence submitted on Espinoza's motion for summary judgment established, as a matter of law, that, as between plaintiff and Espinoza, the cause of the accident was the negligence of plaintiff, who failed to obey the stop sign on Seymour Avenue at the intersection in question. Espinoza, driving on Givan Avenue, where there was no stop sign, had the right of way, and was therefore entitled to anticipate that other drivers would obey the traffic laws requiring them to yield ( see Jenkins v. Alexander, 9 AD3d 286; Murchison v. Incognoli, 5 AD3d 271; Perez v. Brux Cab Corp., 251 AD2d 157, 159-160; Namisnak v. Martin, 244 AD2d 258, 260).
