The lawsuit alleges the companies' buses idled longer than state and local laws allow at locations around the city that are predominantly low-income and have high concentrations of Black and Hispanic residents

No one at the companies could be reached for comment Thursday evening. Messages seeking comment were left for attorneys representing Jofaz Transportation in other legal cases.

The lawsuit alleges the companies' buses idled longer than state and local laws allow at locations around the city that are predominantly low-income and have high concentrations of Black and Hispanic residents. State law prohibits idling for more than five minutes and city law bans idling for more than three minutes. Both laws have certain exceptions.

The attorney general's office said it previously reached an agreement with Jofaz and 3rd Avenue to stop violating the idling laws. But equipment installed on the companies' buses showed the vehicles continued to violate the laws after the agreement, officials said. In one example, a Jofaz bus idled for at least 10 minutes at a bus yard in Brooklyn on 82 different occasions on 42 different days, the attorney general's office said.

NY Attorney General James sues school bus companies for 'idling'Attorney General Letitia James is filing a lawsuit against three New York City school bus companies accusing them of violating idling laws. They do it everywhere. I see them sitting in the parking lots at NYS parks on Long Island, running their engines for heat or air. What are they even doing there? Also. Today I saw one bellowing black exhaust as it passed me on the road. No emissions standards for these vehicles?
