On Tuesday, December 01, 2020, while assigned to Traffic unit N525, I responded to the rear parking lot of 200 Boylston Street, Newton for a report of a motor vehicle crash. I spoke with the reporting party and operator of MV1, Sungmi Lee (S54407875). Ms. Lee stated she was operating her 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe (MA: 6KR971) Eastbound through the second floor of the Wegmans parking garage, a public right of way. The area she was traveling through is designated for one was travel with a vehicle ramp to her right that allows access for vehicle to go up or come down from the third floor. Ms. Lee stated MV2 (2018 Jeep Compass, CT: AR52330), traveled down the ramp from the third floor and did not stop at the stop sign at the entrance to the second floor. Ms. Lee stated the front end of MV2 crashed into the passenger side of her vehicle. I observed damage to the passenger side area of MV1. Ms. Lee stated her neck was sore from the crash but declined having EMS respond to evaluate her. Ms. Lee stated both vehicles pulled over to exchange information after the crash. Ms. Lee stated the operator of the other vehicle, Avery Adams, stated to her she was at fault for the crash. Ms. Lee stated she noticed the license Ms. Adams showed her was expired. Ms. Adams left the area after they exchanged information and Ms. Lee contacted Newton PD about Ms. Adams' license status. I queried Ms. Adams' license and registration status through Newton PD Dispatch who informed me both were suspended. I spoke with Ms. Adams via telephone. Ms. Adams stated she was traveling down the ramp to the second floor of the parking garage and came to stop at the stop sign. Ms. Adams stated she began making her turn onto the second floor when MV1 sped up to go around her. Ms. Adams stated the front driver side of her vehicle crashed into the rear passenger side of MV2. Ms. Adams was advised of her license and registration status and was mailed Massachusetts Uniform Citation T0115918 for Chapter 90, Section 23 (Operate MV with a Suspended License) and Chapter 90, Section 23 (Operate MV with a Suspended Registration).
