Taxi driver’s name was Mohammad. Betcha.
All those injured were cabbies.

“…the driver may have stepped on the gas instead of the brake.”
Here we go again with the runaway car lawsuits.
Once they image the ACM from the vehicle all will become clear; reboot, one of the cabbies they talked to said the driver was a Haitian fellow…and that there was a dead chicken nailed to the dash (okay, I made that last part up…).
