On Friday, December 4, 2020 while assigned to Traffic unit N525, I responded to the area of 34 Etsy Farm Road, Newton for a report of a crash involving a City of Newton contracted Waste Management truck. Etsy Farm Road is a public way maintained by the City of Newton. The weather at the time of the crash was clear and sunny. The road surface was dry. I met with the operator of MV1, Cameron Jacques (S82958796). Jacques stated he was operating a 2014 Mack 600 (MA CON: R46465) southbound on Etsy Farm Road. Jacques stated there were two vehicles parked on opposite sides of the road as he was attempting to continue straight past both vehicles. The rear passenger side tire area of his vehicle made contact with the rear bumper area of the vehicle to his left (MV2). MV2 is a 2010 Lexus RX450 that was parked unoccupied facing northbound in the southbound lane across from 34 Etsy Farm Road. The rear bumper of MV2 was damaged and removed from the vehicle as a result of the crash. The registered owner of MV2, Pine Cone Construction, was advised. Jacques and his passenger Jose Lux de Leon reported no injuries. Photos were taken of the damage to both vehicles and submitted to the IT Bureau.
