Authorities say Bessy Velasquez, a single mother from Brooklyn, was driving a fare in Queens when Daryush Omar hit her cab. According to police, Velasquez and her female passenger were taken to Astoria General Hospital where they were pronounced dead on arrival.
Velasquez worked two jobs to support her two teen daughters.
