Narrative:
The Operator of vehicle 1 stated she was stopped in traffic in the Northbound lane on Parker Street when her vehicle was struck from behind by vehicle 2. This caused the bumper to partly detach and was half hanging on the ground. In order to drive the vehicle away the owner requested I remove the bumper completely. The Operator of vehicle 2 stated he was traveling Northbound on Parker Street and slowing down due to traffic stopped in front of him when he felt his brakes give way, this caused his vehicle to bump into vehicle 1.

Narrative:
At approximately 1620HRs on Thursday, July, 25, 2019, I was dispatched to 444 Washington St. in reference to a truck vs tree motor vehicle crash. Upon arrival, I noted MV1 (MA Vet: 22098) had partially left the roadway and came to rest when it struck a city tree on the sidewalk. Additionally, I noted MV1 struck MV2 (MA Pass: 5CN826), which was parked on the road in front of the tree/aforementioned address. MV1 sustained damage to its front clip and was leaking fluids. MV2 sustained damage to its right rear bumper/quarter panel area. Upon speaking with the operator of MV1, an employee of Tony's Auto Services, he stated that he was test riding the vehicle after they made repairs to its power steering system. He stated that as he traveled eastbound on Watertown St. at approx 30MPH, the vehicle's brakes failed and he guided MV1 towards the tree in an attempt to stop it without injuring anyone. Todys Services took custody of MV1. Newton Fire cleaned up the leaking fluids and the operator of MV1 signed a patient refusal with Newton Medics. Newton Dispatch notified the city to see if they wished to inspect the tree which was still freestanding and appeared to only suffer minor damage. Tony's Auto Services notified the owner of MV1 and I notified the owner of MV2 of the crash. I submitted a picture of the tree to IT to be attached to this report. I cleared without further incident.

Operator of vehicle 1 states he was driving from Sumner St onto Willow St and hit his brake to slow down when his vehicle suddenly accelerated. He then states he tried to hit the brake again but nothing worked. Operator was able to direct his vehicle into the Fire Station parking lot where he struck the building. It appears the operator hit the gas pedal instead of the brake which startled him. Operator was cleared by medics on scene and vehicle 1 was towed by Todys. Officer Wilson took digital images of the scene.

Narrative:
On 7/19/21 I was working N499 when I responded to the area of 360 Brookline St. for a report of an MVA with airbag deployment. Upon arrival I spoke with Elizabeth Driscoll the operator of Veh 1. Driscoll Stated she was traveling eastbound on Brookline St. when her steering wheel 'locked up and wouldn't move". Driscoll stated she was unable to turn the wheel which caused her car to travel across the the oncoming travel lane and collide with a parked vehicle (VEH 2). Newton medics responded and cleared with a patient refusal. David Dyson (the owner of Veh 2) responded. Both Vehicles were towed away by Todys. All parties were provided a report number.
