In opposition to defendants' prima facie showing that plaintiff did not suffer a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law § 5102 (d), plaintiff proffered neither objective medical evidence of significant limitations in his knee that were caused by the accident ( see Jean v Kabaya, 63 AD3d 509) nor competent medical proof substantiating his 90/180-day claim ( see Nguyen v Abdel-Hamed, 61 AD3d 429).

In view of the foregoing, the complaint should be dismissed against all defendants ( see Lopez v Simpson, 39 AD3d 420).
