“It’s really heartbreaking knowing that the company I love and work for and have been there, can’t even be there for me,” said Andrew Perez.
Surveillance footage obtained by KSAT Investigates shows a pushcart driven by a maintenance employee veered off course while pushing a bus, causing the cart to crash into the back portion of Perez’s unoccupied vehicle.The car suffered heavy damage and set Perez, 23, on a now nearly year-long odyssey to get VIA to compensate him for the crash.
“I was calm, thinking I would be taken care of. ‘My company would take care of me,’” said Perez, in emotionally charged remarks in front of VIA’s board of trustees. “I get cussed at, yelled at, spit at, almost assaulted. I’ve been through so much with this company. I’ve shown you so much loyalty over this year.”
KSAT Investigates could not find a rental car available in San Antonio for $25 per day for a 23-year-old driver. The settlement offer also does not cover the length of time Perez said he was without a vehicle and does not address the insurance deductible he had to pay. VIA officials declined a request to be interviewed for this story and said via email earlier this month that the company is continuing to work directly with Perez to address his concerns.
