A woman who suffered injuries of the cervical spine when her car was struck from behind by a New York City garbage truck has agreed to a $3.7 million settlement in her Morris County suit, Diamante v. City of New York.

Violetta Diamante was traveling north on Route 23 in West Milford on July 7, 2015, when her vehicle was rear-ended by a New York City sanitation truck that was operated by Thomas Delgrosso. The impact caused Diamante’s car to strike the rear of the vehicle in front of hers, said plaintiff lawyer Andrew Renda of Renda & Voynick in Cedar Grove.
