crash_reports: 22000356

Vehicle 1 and Vehicle 2 were headed eastbound on Auburn St when Vehicle 1 attempted to parallel park on the south side of Auburn St. Vehicle 2 attempted to drive around Vehicle 1 while they attempted to park, at which time Vehicle 1 decided to abandon their attempt to parallel park and instead took a wide left turn in an attempt to pull into the angled parking spaces across the street on the north side of Auburn St. When Vehicle 1 attempted this turn, the front driver's side quarter panel of Vehicle 1 made contact with the passenger side front and rear quarter panel of Vehicle 2. I observed minor scrapes to the side of Vehicle 2 and minor scrapes to the front quarter panel of Vehicle 1. The operator of Vehicle 1 stated that she was having difficulty turning the steering wheel of her vehicle following the accident, and I observed that her two front wheels were no longer parallel with each other and instead pointed at an inward angle. Both parties denied injuries. Vehicle 2 was able to drive away from the scene while Vehicle 1 requested a tow from AAA.
