The motorcycle had several scratches on its side and a cracked plastic window, consistent with a collision. The operator stated as he was traveling eastbound on Washington St. his motorcycle began to ""skid"" on the road's surface as he changed lanes. This ""skid"" caused the operator to loose control resulting in a collision with the road's surface. The operator had minor lacerations to the knee and elbow and was transported to Newton-Wellesley Hospital. The Motorcycle was placed in the adjacent parking lot, to be picked up later in the evening. It should be noted the roadway in front of 1680 Washington St. had recently been paved over and was smooth and free of debris or defect. There were yaw marks for approx 100 yards in both lanes. There was no indication from the marks of a lane change.","[""Hospital""]",[],[],/static/reports/2000000455.pdf,/static/images/2000000455.png,"1180 Washington St, Newton, MA 02465, USA",42.3489656,-71.2221296,0,2020-10-20T11:03:38
