On 08/21/20 at 13:32 hours, I responded to Boylston & Chestnut Streets for a two car motor vehicle accident involving no injuries. On arrival, both vehicles were pulled over to the right side of the road by 917 Chestnut Street. Operator of M/V# 1 states she was traveling straight ahead on the westbound off ramp of Boylston Street at Chestnut Street. She states she stopped for the stop sign and was attempting to proceed straight through the intersection. Next, she states she was looking towards the right for oncoming traffic and thought it was clear to proceed both ways when she made contact with M/V # 2 in the intersection. I observed moderate damage to the driver's side front quarter panel area/bumper but the vehicle was still driveable. Operator of M/V# 2 states he was traveling straight ahead northbound on Chestnut Street at Boylston Street. He says that he believes M/V # 1 stopped for the stop sign but was inching out in to the intersection. He says that once she came out he attempted to apply his brakes to no avail and the two made contact. I observed moderate damage to the front passenger side quarter panel/bumper area but the vehicle was still driveable. As a result of the accident and the fact that the operator entered the intersection when it was not clear to proceed, I issued the Operator of M/V# 1 MA Uniform Citation# T2015936 for Ch. 89/9 Failure to Stop for Stop Sign.
