The following excerpt is from Hopkins v. East Syracuse Fire Dist., 267 N.Y.S.2d 61, 49 Misc.2d 197 (N.Y. City Ct. 1966):
Although Section 205-b would appear to involve or concern only vehicular torts, the general rule of Bernardine v. City of New York, 294 N.Y. 361, 62 N.E.2d 604, 161 A.L.R. 364, would appear to impose a basis for liability herein.
