In this case, Joseph Ramos sued South Coast British Columbia Transportation Authority (Translink) under the Occupiers Liability Act for injuries he sustained after tripping and falling on a concrete ramp at the Port Coquitlam transit station. Mr. Ramos argued that Translink was negligent in not addressing the tripping hazard. Translink claimed that it provided a safe alternate route and that Mr. Ramos assumed the risk by taking a shortcut. The court found Translink 100% at fault and awarded Mr. Ramos $38,000 in non-pecuniary damages, $5,822.03 in special damages, and $1,644.29 in health care costs. Mr. Ramos was also granted costs of the action.
