Here, a rational interpretation of the evidence supported the jury verdict, which found that the defendant driver was not negligent (see Rubino v Scherrer, 68 AD3d 1090, 1091 [2009]; Bagnato v Romano, 179 AD2d 713, 714 [1992]), and that he exercised reasonable care in an effort to comply with the Vehicle and Traffic Law, thereby excusing his violation of the statute (see Schager v Lino Bordi, Inc., 2 AD3d 828 [2003]; Espinal v Sureau, 262 AD2d 523, 524 [1999]).
