1900000754,2019-07-23T14:53,2019-07-23,14:53,BEACON ST & WASHINGTON ST,WEST BEACON ST,SOUTH WASHINGTON ST,1,25,0,0,"On Tuesday, July 23, 2019, while assigned to Traffic unit N525, I responded to the intersection of Beacon Street and Washington Street, Newton for a motor vehicle accident involving a bicyclist. The weather at the time of the accident was overcast. The road surface was dry. Beacon Street and Washington Street are both public ways maintained by the City of Newton. I spoke with the operator of MV1, Paige Mahoney (S85200426). Mahoney stated she was stopped in traffic at a red light on Beacon Street (W) at Washington Street in her 2018 black Volkswagon Tiguan (MA: 633MV6). Mahoney stated while her vehicle was at a complete stop, she felt and heard something hit the rear of her vehicle. Mahoney exited her vehicle and saw a bicyclist on the roadway. I observed minor damage to the rear middle bumper area of MV1. There was a small amount of blood present on the damaged area. I observed the roadway where the accident occurred. There was a small pool of blood in the left lane of Beacon Street (W) where the bicyclist fell to the roadway. The area of the roadway where the accident occurred is currently undergoing restoration and the asphalt has been graded down to it's sub base in preparation to be resurfaced. The current road surface condition is bumpy and uneven. The area where the roadway goes from a smooth surface to a bumpy surface is where the accident occurred. The injured bicyclist was identified as Timothy Johnson (S29270605). I spoke with him in the Newton Wellesley Hospital emergency room. Johnson stated he was operating his bicycle Westbound on Beacon Street on the right side of the left lane. Johnson stated he was coming to a stop in traffic at a red light when his wheel abruptly turned to the left and he began to fall over. Johnson stated his head hit the back of a vehicle stopped in front of him and he landed on his right side, with his bicycle landing on top of him. As a result of the accident, Johnson suffered an injury to the right side of his head and had scrapes on his right arm. Johnson stated he did not lose consciousness as a result of the accident and he appeared to be alert and orientated while I was speaking with him. Johnson was wearing a helmet at the time of the accident. There were fresh markings on the right side of the helmet with minor black paint transfer. These markings are consistent with Johnson's statement that he fell into the back of MV1 and hit his head. Johnson's bicycle was removed from the roadway prior to my arrival and was being stored in the driveway of 2044 Beacon Street by the resident there. I observed no obvious damage to Johnson's bicycle. After speaking with all parties involved and examining the roadway where the accident occurred, it appears that the condition of the road surface contributed to Johnson losing control of his bicycle and crashing into the rear bumper area of MV1 while it was stopped in traffic. Photos were taken of the road surface, John's bicycle, and MV2 and submitted to the IT Bureau.","[""Bike"", ""Crash"", ""Helmet"", ""Hospital"", ""Pictures""]",[],[],/static/reports/1900000754.pdf,/static/images/1900000754.png,"Beacon St & Washington St, Newton, MA 02462, USA",42.3300068,-71.2484874,0,2020-10-07T12:31:27.008125
