Operator of Vehicle #1 stated that he was traveling east on Beacon Street. Operator stated that he was making a right turn into the driveway of his parents home (1250 Beacon) when Vehicle #2 tried to pass him on the right. This area of Beacon Street is a one lane road in each direction with an established breakdown lane. Vehicle #2 struck Vehicle #1 on the passenger side front and middle. Vehicle #1 was then pushed back into the lane of travel on Beacon street. Vehicle #2 left the roadway and came to the rest on the sidewalk. Vehicle #2 also popped the driver side front tire. Operator of Vehicle #2 stated that he was traveling east on Beacon street behind Vehicle #1. Operator stated that Vehicle #1 had a left turn signal on and swung over the double yellow line as if he was turning left onto Warren Rd. Operator stated that he believed Vehicle #1 was making a left and therefore went around the vehicle. I again spoke with Operator #1 who stated that it was not possible for him to be making a left turn as he was well aware where the driveway to his parents house was. Operator #2 complained of bodily injury and was transported to Newton-Wellesley Hospital by Cataldo Medics. Vehicle #2 was towed from the scene by Todys.
