Narrative:
On Saturday, January 12th 2019, at approximately 4:12pm, I, Officer Brooks, responded to a single vehicle accident in the area of Cherry street and Derby street, both of which are public ways in the city of Newton. Upon arrival in the area I observed the fire department off with MV1(MA REG 9PAK20), in front of 171 Cherry street. The vehicle had a fire hydrant lodged under the front axle, and front end damage. The fire department was attempting to wake the operator who was unresponsive. The fire department ended up administering 2 doses of Narcan to the operator before he became responsive. The operator was transported to Newton Wellesley Hospital by Cataldo for further evaluation. Based on the accident scene, it appears the operator was traveling southbound on Cherry street, crossed over the center line into oncoming traffic, striking the fire hydrant in front of 154 Cherry street, and then crossed back over into the correct lane of traffic before coming to rest in front of 171 Cherry street. The vehicle was towed by Tody's towing, and an inventory form was filled out and filed. The operator was mailed MA Uniform Citations T0648078 and T0648079 charging him with MGL 89/4A Marked Lanes violation, 90/24 OUI Drugs, 90/24(2)(A) Operating to Endanger/Negligent operation, 90/11 No License in Possession, and 90/11 No Registration in Possession. Officer Donahue took pictures of the fire hydrant and crash scene, which have been submitted to the IT Bureau. The fire department was made aware of the broken hydrant.

Narrative:
Emery Mays states that he took his fathers vehicle Ma. Reg 8BL949, this morning. Emery states that he got lost and ended up in the parking lot at 333 Nahanton St which is only accessible by the Jewish Community Center's access road and Nahanton Street (public way in the City of Newton). Emery then proceeded to do "doughnuts" in the muddied lot. Emery then lost control of the vehicle and struck a parked storage container causing minor damage. Both airbags were deployed. Emery does not have a license and was transported to NWH (as he is a juvenile and a parent could not sign a refusal in a reasonable time period ). He attends the Fusion Academy in Newton. I spoke with Emery's father Randolph Mays. I told Randolph of the accident. Randolph stated that he did not give Emery permission to take his vehicle. Randolph stated that he would meet Emery at NWH. I told Randolph that Emery was going to be charged wit Ch.90 Sec.10 unlicensed operation of a m/v, citation # T1272114 (in the mail due to his being at the hospital). I also advised that he could take out his own charges against Emery for using without authority if he chooses to do so. Todys towed the vehicle. JCC staff were notified of the incident.

Narrative:
On Friday, July 19, 2019, while assigned to traffic unit N525, I responded to the area of 845 Beacon Street, Newton for a report of a motor vehicle accident involving a bicyclist. It was reported that the bicyclist sustained minor injuries as a result of the accident. The weather at the time of the accident was clear and sunny. The road surface was dry. Beacon Street is a public way maintained by the City of Newton. I spoke with the operator of MV1 while Newton Fire and Medics attended to the injured bicyclist. Andrei Jordao (S09978620) stated he was parked in his 2019 Hyundai Kona (NY: JFP5331) at a metered parking spot in front of 847 Beacon Street, Newton.

Jordao stated the bicyclist fell to the roadway. I observed moderate damage to the driver side door and it was unable to close as a result of the collision. I spoke with the injured bicyclist, Leonard Engel (S53573803). Engel stated he was operating his bicycle Westbound on Beacon Street in the travel lane. Engel stated a vehicle to his right opened it's driver door into the roadway and he was unable to avoid hitting it. Engel stated he fell over the top of his handlebars and onto the roadway. Engel stated he injured his right shoulder/arm/neck area and his right ankle. Engel also had a small injury to his left knee.

An RMV check revealed Vehicle 2's registered owner as Joan Goldman of 53 Bartlett Way Apt 205 Waltham, MA. I was able to contact Goldman over the phone. Goldman identified herself as the operator and owner of Vehicle 2. Goldman states that while she was backing into a parking stall she was going very slow. Goldman states she did not feel any impact and left the scene because she did not think she collided with Vehicle 1. Goldman states she was not injured. Goldman was provided with the information of Vehicle 1 and was advised to contact her insurance company. I also called and provided the owner of Vehicle 1 with the information of Vehicle 2.

Narrative:
On Friday, September 13, 2019 at approximately 16:19 hours, while assigned to N496, I responded to 162 Warren St. for a report that two boys were hit by a car earlier in the day. Once on scene I spoke with Wes Moore and Luca Toro (both attend Oak Hill Middle School), as well as their mothers Jamie Moore and Alyssa Toro. Wes and Luca explained that at about 15:15 hours, they were crossing at the crosswalk adjacent to the Bank of America in Newton Centre (808 Beacon Street), heading towards the Newton Centre municipal parking lot. The boys stated that as they crossed a large van, which was traveling westbound on Beacon Street in the left turn lane, stopped to let them cross. Wes and Luca stated that they did not realize that there was another westbound travel lane, and after passing the truck they were both hit by an unknown sedan. Wes and Luca stated that the driver, who they described as an approximately 50 year old white female, got out of her car and started yelling at them to be careful. Wes and Luca stated that the unknown female operator checked to see if they were hurt and then left the area heading westbound on Beacon Street. Wes and Luca stated that they both fell to the ground as a result of being hit by the unknown motor vehicle, but only sustained minor injuries. I offered to have an ambulance respond to evaluate Wes and Luca, however, Mrs. Moore and Mrs. Toro declined. I advised the boys and their mothers that I would be documenting this incident with a crash report, and that I would head to the area to see if Bank of America had and cameras facing the crosswalk, so that we could hopefully identify the operator of the unknown motor vehicle. I then responded to the Bank of America, however, the bank was closed for the day. Supplement by Officer Ferguson: On Monday 09/16/2019 at approximately 0900 hours I responded to the Bank of America and spoke with the employees who stated they do not have any cameras that record the street or sidewalk areas. The camera they have only records the front door and lobby area.

Narrative:
At approximately 2250HRs on Friday, December 13, 2019, I was dispatched to the area of 275 Washington St. for a report of a hit and run crash; Newton Officers and a State Police Officer canvassed the area with negative results. Upon speaking with the operator of MV1 (MA Pass:1CTB36), he stated that he was traveling Westbound on Washington St., when he observed a black Honda mini van or SUV, MV2, approach him in his passenger's side mirror and then attempt to enter his lane of travel, striking the rear of MV1. Upon speaking with the two witnesses who were traveling behind MV1 and MV2, they concurred with the operator of MV1's account. The witnesses described MV2 as a black Honda or Toyota mini van or SUV. I observed damage to the right rear quarter panel, trunk area and right rear tire of MV1. Todys Services arrived and took custody of MV1. I filled an NPD Towed Motor Vehicle Form. **Update as of 1800HRs on 12/15/2019** I was made aware that the operator of MV2 in this incident, now identified as MA Pass: 8HD155, submitted a Commonwealth of Massachusetts Motor Vehicle Crash Operator Report on 12/14/2019. In said report, the operator admits to striking MV1 and stated that he pulled over on Peabody St., where he remained for approximately 15 minutes awaiting MV1. When MV1 did not arrive, the operator of MV2 attempted to drive away, but realized the damage was too severe and returned to the same spot on Peabody St. I viewed MV2 at Clay Auto Body and observed damage to its left fender/wheel well area, as well as a deployed passenger's side airbag. Upon speaking with the operator of MV2, he reiterated the same information he stated in the above summary of his Commonwealth of Massachusetts Motor Vehicle Crash Operator Report. In the presence of his parents, I advised him on the proper steps to take when involved in an accident, such as the proper exchange of information and the potential ramifications of not doing so. Due to the operator of MV2 being 17 years old, being issued his driver's license 9 months ago and his evident remorse/confusion surrounding the incident, I will not be seeking any charges. I updated the operator of MV1 and provided both parties with an NPD Crash Data Exchange Form.

Narrative:
On Friday December 27th, 2019, at approximately 1348hrs, while assigned to N508 to assist with a funeral escort, I was notified by Dispatch that "MC1" was involved in a crash at the Whole Foods parking lot on Washington Street. Upon arrival I found that Newton Police Motorcycle #1 was involved in a crash while helping to assist a funeral that had just left the Our Lady Church property. Police MC #1 is MA MMC7219, a 2016 Harley Davidson motorcycle. The motorcycle was operated by Officer Rocco Marini. MV #2 was also located on scene and parked in the Whole Food parking lot. This vehicle is MA Reg. 7VN155 a 2017 Lexus ES350. This vehicle was operated by Diana Simkin. Officer Marini reported that he was traveling westbound on Washington Street when he was hit by MV #2 that was making a left (opposite direction) into the Whole Foods parking lot. Officer Marini was in the right hand lane escorting the long line of cars that was part of a funeral procession. These vehicles were in left westbound lane. Officer Marini reported he was in the right hand lane and had his emergency lights on when the collision occurred. Officer Marini did not see MV #2 prior to collision. Officer Marini reported that the front of his motorcycle hit the rear passenger side tire of MV #2. Officer Marini was taken from the scene by Ambulance to Newton Wellesley Hospital. I spoke to the operator of MV #2 Diana Simkin. Simkin reported she was traveling east on Washington Street and wanted to make a left into Whole Foods parking lot when the crash occurred. Simkin reported she was waved into the lot by an unknown motor vehicle headed in the opposite direction. Simkin was not sure which lane this person waved from. Simkin made the left into the lot and was not aware of the crash or did she see MC 1 until she was stuck in traffic in the parking lot and some woman knocked on her window. Simkin reported that she never saw an police emergency flashing lights either. There was minimal damage to Simkin's vehicle. There was scuff marks on the passenger rear tire. Simkin also did not report any injuries. MC #1 sustained some front damage to the wheel fender fairing. The motorcycle was taken from the scene by Tody's. Pictures were taken on scene by Officer McSweeney and given to IT for downloading purposes. While on scene Officer McSweeney and myself went to New England Diamond and Jewelry at 660 Washington Street. We met the owners Dave and Robert Alpert (617-243-0099) who reported that they have video of the collision. In the video I observed at 1346hrs the funeral begin to pass the Whole Foods entrance. At 1348hrs the video shows MV #2 come up in the easttbound lane and stop. The vehicle stops and waits until an unknown white SUV stops to allow MV #2 to make a left turn into the lot. Once this unknown SUV stops, the video shows that MV #2 makes the left and hits MC #1 as he is traveling straight ahead with his emergency lights on. It appears from the video that MC #1 had no warning and could not brake his motorcycle. The video shows a long line of cars in this funeral procession with their emergency flashing lights on. Due to the angle of the video and vehicles I am unable to tell if this SUV had their flashing lights on. The video was sent to Director Smith in IT for downloading purposes. I went to Newton Wellesley Hospital and spoke with Officer Marini. He was reporting soreness to his left elbow. Officer Marini was released from the Hospital and taken back to the station at about 1500hrs. Based on the facts of the investigation, I have issued MA Uniform Citation T0340444 to Diana Simkin for violating 89/8: failure to yield the right of way and for violating 89/7A: interference with an emergency vehicle. Simkin was notified of this citation via telephone at 1730hrs on this day and this citation was mailed to her address. Washington Street is a public way in the City of Newton.

Based on observations, and statements made, the following occurred. The operator of M/V#1 stated that at approx. 21:30 hrs. he parked M/V#1 in a parking lot behind, and parallel to 2011/2013 Chestnut St., in a clearly defined parking spot.

It appeared that M/V#2 attempted to pull forward, causing damage a long the entire right side of M/V#1, and pushing it a few feet forward, then struck a hand rail causing the hand rail to bend inwards. M/V#2 had left behind a large amount of debris, including MA License Plate Veteran RG9.

I was also informed that they made contact with the registered owner and advised him to contact Newton P.D. (See NPD incident report #20003150) After speaking to Robert Godnio, he informed me that his son Wayne Godino had been driving the vehicle on 01/17/2020 at approx. 2100 Hrs. I spoke to Wayne Godino, who stated that someone hit his car behind The Builtmore, and took off, then he left. I advised him that the evidence showed that he struck a parked car. Wayne asked how do you know? there weren't any pieces" I advised him that I recovered the license plate to his fathers car, and he stated "whatever". Charges will be sought for MGL C90 S24 Leaving the scene property damage.

MV#1 was parked facing south on Elm Street (a public way in the City of Newton) when it collided with MV#2. - OpMv#2 stated she discovered a note on her windshield from Wit#1 informing her that her vehicle had been struck and OpMv#1 left the area. OpMv#2 observed the damage to her vehicle and reported the incident to the police. - Wit#1 stated MV#1 pulling out of a street side parking spot on Elm Street, as the vehicle pulled out of the spot it struck the left side bumper of Mv#2. Wit#1 described OpMv#1 as white male in his twenties. He further stated he observed OpMv#1 attempt to find the owner of the vehicle, however, he did not find them and so he left. He added that OpMv#1 did not leave any contact information OpMV#2 to find and contact him regarding the collision. He stated he was the one who left the note for OpMv#2 informing her that her vehicle was struck. - I observed the damage to the left bumper of MV#2. I made several attempts to make contact with OpMv#1 via telephone on several occasion; contacted Framingham police to contact OpMv#1, to no avail. During my investigation of the incident I discovered that OpMv#1 has a suspended driver's license. I conducted an inspection of the area and did not observe cameras that covered the involved parking stalls. -There were no injuries reported at this time and neither vehicle was towed from the scene. Traffic Bureau Update (Officer Gaudet): On July 27, 2020, I attempted to contact the registered owner of MV1, Toghrul Mustafayev (SA0610793), with a negative result. A "Hit and Run" inquiry was mailed to Mustafayev. On Tuesday, August 4, 2020, I spoke with Mustafayev via telephone. Mustafayev stated he is the owner of MV1 and recalls being involved in an incident on July 24, 2020 in front of 115 Elm Street, Newton. Elm Street is a public way maintained by the City of Newton. Mustafayev stated he was operating his vehicle (2007 Toyota Prius, MA: 93A250), while leaving a parking spot in front of 115 Elm Street. Mustafayev stated as he left the parking spot his vehicle touched another vehicle. Mustafayev stated he exited his vehicle and observed no damage to the other vehicle involved. Mustafayev stated he looked around for the other owner but could not find them. A query of Mustafayev's license status shows it is suspended as of November 18, 2019. I asked Mustafayev if he was aware of his license status. Mustafayev stated he knew it was suspended but he was only changing parking spots when the crash occurred. Mustafayev was advised and will be mailed Massachusetts Uniform Citation T0115912 for Chapter 90, Section 23 (Operating MV After Suspension) and Chapter 90, Section 24(2) (Leaving The Scene of Property Damage). A report and affidavit of an operating after suspension was completed and e-mailed to the Registry of Motor Vehicles at DCUOperatingAfterSuspension@massmail.state.ma.us.

Operator #1 was driving northbound on Lexington St behind a white box truck (vehicle #2) when she observed the truck strike a large branch from a city tree in front of 450 Lexington St. The branch fell onto the hood of vehicle #1, and the truck continued north without stopping. I observed slight damage to the front of vehicle #1 however a tow was not needed. Medics responded and documented a patient refusal from operator #1. This incident was called in by detail Officer B. Keefe, who was working a National Grid detail at this location (one lane was blocked off by cones but there was still a full travel lane being utilized for northbound traffic). A plate could not be obtained by anybody on scene due to the crash occurring so quickly. It is believed that there was black lettering on the truck, however what it said is unknown. Forestry was notified to remove the branch from the roadway.

Schreiner said that MV2 was white and looked like a Toyota Highlander operated by a white female w/ blonde hair in her 40's. It is unclear at this time who was operating MV2(MA# 1NTE29). Dracut PD was contacted about the registered owner and I was able to get a phone number. However, the number was to a business she hasn't worked at in five years. Traffic Bureau update (Officer Gaudet): On Monday, February 22, 2021 I was able to make contact with the registered owner of MV2, Ms. Melinda Russo (S29162725). Ms. Russo stated that she was operating her white 2019 Toyota Highlander (MA: 1NTE29) in the Austin Street municipal parking lot this morning. Ms. Russo stated she was backing out of a parking spot when she observed her passenger side mirror collapse in. Ms. Russo stated after she exited the parking spot she pulled her vehicle over and observed no damage to the passenger door mirror area. Ms. Russo stated she fixed her mirror and then left the area. Ms. Russo stated she did not think there would be damage to any other vehicle because she did not have damage on her vehicle. Ms. Russo was advised that if she believes she was involved in a crash, she should make every effort to contact the owner of the other vehicle. Ms. Russo was also advised she can contact the police department for assistance. Ms. Russo will be mailled Massachusetts Uniform Citation T1446762 for Newton City Ordinance Chapter 19, Section 75 (Fail to Use Care). Austin Street is a public way maintained by the City of Newton.

MV 2 continued driving eastbound on Washington St and took the first right hand turn onto Harvard St. MV 1 sustained heavy damage to the rear and both rear tires. Jesse was not injured from the accident. MV 1 was towed by Todys. A towed motor vehicle sheet was filled out and filed in the proper basket. Ofc Helms and Sgt Fleming followed a fluid trail from Harvard St to Potter St where they located a red mid sized sedan matching the description of the vehicle with heavy front end damage. After MV 1 was towed away, I arrived on Potter St. MV 2 sustained major front end damage. The radiator was still hissing from the fluid leak that had lead officers to the location. The vehicle is registered to Mr. Jordan Greeley of Avon MA. Attempts to locate the operator of MV 2 yielded negative results. Dispatch contacted the Avon Police Department and requested they check for him at his address of 654 West Main St in Avon MA. At approximately 0530 hours, Avon police spoke with Jordan's mother who stated he was not home. Debris from MV 2 was collected at the scene of 821 Washington St and recorded into property and evidence. See incident report number 21014394. This incident will be further investigated. On Saturday, 4/3/2021, at approximately 1500 hours, Mr. Kevin Pineda called the station and admitted he was operating MV 2. Kevin is the brother in law to the owner of MV 2, Jordan Greeley. At approximately 1600 hours, Kevin came into the station and spoke with me. Kevin stated he was driving MV 2 home from work to his brothers house 28 R Meadow St from the job site on Calvary St in Waltham. Kevin further stated he remembered being behind MV 1 on Washington St and began to fall asleep behind the wheel near the intersection of Washington St and Walnut St. At 821 Washington St MV 2 rear ended MV 1. Kevin stated the impact woke him up and panicked him. Kevin stated he was scared because he has a bad driving record and did not want to lose his license again. Kevin further stated he continued operating MV 2 Eastbound on Washington St to Potter St. Kevin was issued Massachusetts Uniform Citation T 2080797 for MGL Ch 90/24(2) Leaving the Scene of property damage.

Narrative:
On April 19th, 2021 at approximately 12:48 hours while working N491 I responded to #146 Norwood Ave for a report of a past MV crash. On my arrival I spoke with the R/P, owner of the vehicle involved, Ann William. She stated she received a call from her daughter around 11:40 this morning that someone had backed into her vehicle(2019 Subaru wagon) which was parked in the driveway to the above address. The other vehicle involved had driven away after the crash. Ms William informed me of a witness identified as Wagner Calhau (978-413-3927). She stated she had already spoken with him and he emailed her a copy of the video he took of the other involved vehicle. The witness apparently was doing work across the street when he witnessed this accident. I located the witness who was still on scene across the street. He reported the following: A truck was dumping some gravel to his job site and had temporarily blocked the street. A pick up truck heading W/B became impatient waiting for the truck to move and began to turn around to head back E/B. The pick up proceeded to back up into the driveway of #146 Norwood Ave to turn around. The truck as it backed into the driveway backed into the rear drivers side to vehicle #1 causing damage. The witness then grabbed his cell phone but was only able to begin recording as vehicle #2 was driving away. Witness showed me the video footage he captured on his cell phone. The pick up truck appeared to be silver in color with a tarp in the back. The license plate I couldn't discern. The operator was not visible.from the video. I will have the video emailed to our IT bureau to see if they can enhance the video for the purposes of capturing the license plate for the pick up truck. I will further investigate if IT bureau is able to enhance the video that shows the suspects license plate.

At approximately 0558HRs on Monday, May 10, 2021, I responded to 303 Auburn St. for a report of a 3 car motor vehicle crash. Upon arrival, I observed the 3 vehicles in question, which included MV1 (MA Pass: 922WA6) in the roadway and MV 2 (MA Con:J95164)/MV3 (MA Pass:3CR718) which were angle parked. Upon speaking with the operator of MV1, they stated that they were traveling on Auburn St. (West Bound ), when their coffee cup fell out of the cup holder and as they attempted to catch it, they inadvertently caused MV1 veer out of the roadway, colliding with MV2 and push it into MV3 and a city tree in front of the above address. Upon processing the scene, I observed damage to the driver's side fender/hood area of MV1, where it struck MV2. MV2 sustained damage to its driver's side fender/hood area, center bumper/hood area and passenger's side fender/hood area; its rear bumper where it struck the tree did not show any signees of outward damage. MV3 sustained damage to its driver's side fender/bumper area. The operator of MV1 reported no injuries and the remaining 2 operators were inside a local eatery during the time of the crash. Todys Services arrived and removed MV1, while MV2/MV3 were driven away. Dispatch notified Forestry to examine the tree. And I cleared without incident.

Narrative:
On Thursday May 13th, 2021 at approximately 1353 hours myself and several units responded 55 Chapel Street for a motor vehicle that struck a pedestrian. At the time of the accident the weather was sunny and the road surface was dry. Chapel Street is a public way owned and maintained by the City of Newton. Upon arrival Fire and medical personnel were attempting to remove the pedestrian from underneath the vehicle as her right leg was stuck in the undercarriage. Fire and medics were able to successfully free the pedestrian from the vehicle and render medical attention. The pedestrian was identified as Beth Herr ( S58524067) and it was determined that she was also the owner of the vehicle involved. I spoke to witness Joe Shields who stated he was outside his house located at 56 Chapel Street when his attention was brought to a blue SUV that was unoccupied moving backwards down Chapel Street. Joe stated he first witnessed the operator of the motor vehicle pull up to the UPS drop box located on the sidewalk across the street from his house. He stated he saw the female operator step out of the vehicle and drop off a package. Next he saw the vehicle start to roll backwards and the female operator opened the drivers side door and attempted to pull the emergency break. He stated the vehicle overtook her and she fell to the ground with her foot stuck under the car. Joe states he heard her yell and saw her get dragged by the vehicle to the opposite side of the street where the vehicle was stopped by the curb. Joe stated he tried to assist the woman but she was yelling in pain and he did not want to cause more injury so he waited for help to arrive. Witness Robyn Preston stated she was walking on Chapel Street when she saw the blue SUV rolling backwards with no one inside the vehicle. She states she then saw a woman try to stop the vehicle but she got dragged underneath the vehicle to its final resting place. Robyn stated she stayed on scene until help arrived. I was able to speak with Beth inside the ambulance prior to being transported to the hospital. Beth was conscious and alert but in a considerable amount of pain and discomfort. I asked her what happened to which she stated she drove her blue Toyota Rav4 MA REG: 1FHM53 to the UPS drop box located in the area of 55 Chapel Street. She stated she thought she put the vehicle in park but must not have as it started to roll backwards when she got out of the car. She states she tried to stop the car by opening the drivers side door and attempting to pull the emergency break. The car over took her and she was dragged to the ground with her right foot stuck underneath the vehicle. She was dragged across the street where the vehicle was finally stopped by a curb. Beth sustained minor scrapes and road rash on various parts of her body and her right leg was injured. Fallon medics transported her to the Brigham & Womens Hospital to be treated. Her husband was contacted using Beth's cell phone and notified of the accident. Captain Boudreau and I were able to drive her vehicle to her residence at 50 Broadway Street, Newton. Her vehicle was left parked outside her house and her car keys were left with her husband who was inside the residence. The vehicle did not sustain any damage. Pictures of the scene were taken and submitted to the IT Bureau. I will be following up with Beth at the hospital to check on her status. On Friday May 14th at 0900 hours I spoke with Beth on the phone. She stated she is home from the hospital and doing much better. She states she has right leg pain and road rash from the accident.

The operator of MV2 stated that he was the one driving on right lane when the operator of MV1 hit him in the rear bumper. The operator of MV2 stated that he had the right away which is why MV1 crashed into his bumper.

Narrative:
Vehicle 1 was parked in the parking lot of the Star Market at #33 Austin St when Vehicle 2 attempted to park in the adjacent parking space. While doing so, the front left corner of Vehicle 2 made contact with the driver's side rear door and rear quarter panel causing minor scratches to both vehicles. The operator of Vehicle 1 confronted the operator of Vehicle 2 who stated "You're crazy!" before going across the street to get coffee from Starbucks. When the operator of Vehicle 2 returned she apologized to the operator of Vehicle 1 but felt uncomfortable and left the area without providing her information to the other operator. The operator of Vehicle 2 was issued MA Uniform Citation #T1448098 for leaving the scene with property damage and an incident report was completed (See Report #22019777).There were no injuries due to this accident and neither vehicle was towed.
