Narrative:
On Wednesday 2/2/22 at approximately 1137hrs while assigned to marked unit n498 I was driving Eastbound on Nahanton Street when I was flagged down by a motorist operating a Black BMW SUV. Operator of the vehicle, identified as NOVAIS Eduardo, states he was driving Westbound on Nahanton Street following a Smart Car when "out of nowhere" the Smart Car made a U-Turn in the middle of the road reversing direction on Nahanton Street. NOVAIS states the only way he could avoid a collision with the car was pull hard to the right which he did, striking a snow bank on the side of the road. NOVAIS states there was a verbal exchange between he and the female driver, but she drove away. NOVAIS took a picture of the vehicle's license plate, which is EV5791. As of the time of this report I have been unable to speak with the operator of that vehicle. NOVAIS is concerned about damage to his vehicle. Although there was no physical body damage to his vehicle there was a message displayed on his dashboard stating there could be issues with the Chassis and he should schedule maintenance right away. NOVAIS further states he could feel something unusual with the steering, but felt the vehicle was safe to drive as he lived close to Nahanton Street.
