On Wednesday, May 22nd 2019, at approximately 6:53am, I, Officer Brooks, responded to Crafts street at Albemarle road for a report of a 2 car MVA. Upon my arrival I spoke with the operator of MV1(MA REG 9MJ713 ), who stated he was traveling northbound on Albemarle road. He stated he stopped at the stop sign at the intersection with Crafts street, and traffic traveling Eastbound on Crafts street stopped to let him cross over Crafts street and continue on Albemarle road. As he proceeded through the stop sign, he was struck on the drivers side front end by MV2(MA REG 7HJ262), which had crossed over the center line of Crafts street traveling Eastbound, passing the cars which had stopped to let MV1 out. MV1 had damage to the drivers side front quarter panel and front bumper. The operator was not injured. I then spoke with the operator of MV2 who stated she was traveling Eastbound on Crafts street, and was attempting to take a left hand turn onto North street, so she was driving in the center lane. The center lane the operator is referring to is actually a left hand turn lane for vehicles traveling Westbound on Crafts street for vehicles who wish to turn onto Albemarle road. There is no right of way in that center lane for vehicles traveling Eastbound. MV2 had damage to the passenger side front quarter panel. The operator was uninjured. The operator of MV2 was issued a citation in hand for 89/4A Marked lanes violation. She notified AAA for a tow. MV1 was towed by Tody's. Both operators were provided the crash report number.
