There were 2 landscape vehicles parked on left side of the street. The operator, Sarah Ruth Loper-Sengupta, stated that she never saw the pedestrian that was in the roadway (N) due to solar glare. Loper-Sengupta stated she heard a thump coming from the passenger side of her vehicle. Loper-Sengupta stated she looked over to her right and saw a trash barrel in the air. Loper-Sengupta stated she then saw a male party lying on the roadway on her passenger side. Immediately after striking the pedestrian, Loper-Sengupta, stopped to check on him. There was a golden doodle dog in the back seat of the MV at the time of the accident, unrestrained. There were no obstructions hanging from the mirror or windshield area. The front drivers visor was down. There was no airbag deployment. I observed significat damage to the front passenger side windshield area. There was also damage to the front passenger side hood area. See Sgt. Lee update for victim statement Numerous pictures were taken by Ofc. Gaudet of the MV and scene. They were TOT IT. The MV was towed by Tody's due to its shattered windshield. No citation will be issued to Loper-Sengupta. The solar glare caused her to not able to see the pedestrian. The Sgt. and I dont believe the pedestrian looked before crossing with the barell on his left shoulder because he would have been able to see the MV coming as this is straight away section of Madison Ave. It should be noted, that when I arrived on scene I immediately noticed the seolar glare as I walked east on Madison Ave.","[""Airbag"", ""Citation"", ""Crash"", ""Glare"", ""Ped"", ""Pictures"", ""Solar"", ""Walk""]","[""Visibility obstructed""]",[18],/static/reports/1900000432.pdf,/static/images/1900000432.png,"80 Madison Ave, Newton, MA 02460, USA",42.3497937,-71.2051351,0,2020-10-06T16:46:37.775644

Commonwealth Avenue is a public way owned and maintained by the City of Newton. Both operators were outside of their vehicles at the time and reported no injuries. I observed Vehicle # 1 (Honda Civic MA reg. # 2CWA44) to have heavy front end damage to the bumper and hood area. It was parked back approximately ten feet from Vehicle # 2. Due to the damage and it leaking anti-freeze coolant, Tody's Towing was notified to tow the vehicle away. Vehicle # 2 (Ford EcoSport MA reg. # 2HJV37) was parked in front of Vehicle # 1 and sustained damage to the center and right rear bumper area. It was still driveable. I spoke to the operator of Vehicle # 2 (Maria Bianchi MA D/L # S97972578) and asked her what occurred. She stated that she was traveling westbound on Commonwealth Avenue in her Ford EcoSport (MA # 2HJV37) but was stopped at the time waiting for a vehicle in front of her to make a left turn on to Grafton Street. She was then struck in her rear end by Vehicle # 1. After, I spoke to the operator of Vehicle # 1 (Maria Kuznetsova MA D/L # S48191231) and asked her what occurred. She stated that she was traveling westbound on Commonwealth Avenue in her Honda Civic (MA # 2CWA44) and did not see Vehicle # 2 stopped in traffic due to the sun. She then struck Vehicle # 2 in the rear end. At that time, there was noticeable solar glare in that area of Commonwealth Avenue. This part of Commonwealth Avenue also has a slight curve that you come around and ends at the point where the crash occurred. After, I went back to my cruiser and checked the status of the vehicles and operators through the RMV on my laptop. It showed that Maria Kuznetsova had a expired non renewable driver's license which expired on 07/15/21. Kuznetsova's Honda Civic came back with a status of being unregistered due to revoked insurance. It was revoked on 08/29/21 through the MA RMV. I issued MA Uniform Citation # 185998AB in hand to her for Ch. 90/10/A Unlicensed Operation of a Motor Vehicle, Ch. 90/9/B Unregistered Motor Vehicle, and Ch. 90/34J Uninsured Motor Vehicle and explained the process to her.
