Narrative:

Our large transport landed on runway 4 at lga at approximately AM25 (left) on 7/wed/92. We cleared by turning right on uniform taxiway and right again on right to hold short of runway 13 which was being used for departures. I was in the process of doing my after landing checks, looking at my panel when I heard the first officer say we were cleared to hold short, not cross runway 13. The captain thought we were cleared across and had to apply heavy braking to avoid going onto runway 13. At that moment an large transport was accelerating down runway 13 and had we continued onto runway 13 there would have been no possibility of avoiding being broadsided by the large transport. The tower was frantically telling us to hold short as we were in the process of braking. The captain should have repeated the clearance he understood so that the misunderstanding could have been cleared up prior to reaching the hold short line. This is part of the training given to captain's and first officer's in our airline but this captain was a 'silent type.' he never conveyed his intentions to us nor did he respond to all checklist responses as he is required. He displayed these tendencies on all flts that I have flown with him. If there had been hold short lights in place this would not have occurred. Supplemental information from acn 216314. The primary cause of this incident was my failure to properly verify instructions. Supplemental information from acn 216206. Captain should have reiterated clearance to flight deck and I should have challenged him earlier as that he fully understood clearance.
