Narrative:
On Thursday, October 15, 2020, while assigned to Traffic unit N525, I responded to the Whole Foods parking lot entrance located at 916 Walnut Street, Newton for a report of a motor vehicle/bicycle crash. Walnut Street 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 spoke with the operator of MV1, Tyrone Powell. Powell stated he was operating his 2016 Toyota Highlander (MA: VTT188) while traveling across Walnut Street (E) from Carthay Circle. Powell stated there was a strong sun glare at this time on his passenger side. Powell stated as he entered the Whole Foods parking lot entrance, the passenger side of his vehicle collided with a passing bicyclist that was traveling northbound on Walnut Street. Powell reported no injuries. I observed damage to the passenger side hood/fender of MV1. I spoke with the bicyclist involved in the crash, Scott Chamberlain. Chamberlain stated he was operating his bicycle on Walnut Street (N) in the marked bicycle lane near the entrance to the Whole Foods located at 916 Walnut Street. Chamberlain stated he had a bicycle helmet on at this time. Chamberlain stated that he observed a vehicle to his left travel across Walnut Street in front of him into the Whole Foods parking lot. Chamberlain stated he was unable to avoid crashing into him. Chamberlain reported minor injuries and signed a patient refusal with Newton Medics. I observed no substantial damage to his red Specialized bicycle. Photos were taken and submitted to the IT Bureau. While on scene, Officers did notice a strong sun glare coming from the Southeast direction of Walnut Street. This glare would have shined on the passenger side area of MV1 as it crossed Walnut Street.

Narrative:
Operator of vehicle one ( 2016 Infinity MA reg 3YD266 ) Miram Qualter, stated on 11/05/2020 at 10:28 hours while driving south bound on Waverley Ave near the intersection of Tremont St " the light was turning " as her vehicle entered the intersection. Both Tremont St and Waverly Ave are public ways in the City of Newton. Qualter stated that she was driving into solar glare and did not see any traffic in the intersection as she proceeded into it. Qualter stated that she believed that she still had the right of way and that traffic on Tremont St had a red light. Qualter stated that she did not see vehicle two until the time of impact . Qualter stated that she was not injured in the crash. Qualter's vehicle had major damage to the front driver's side windshield and front driver's side quarter panel. Operator of vehicle two Keith Ward stated that he was riding his Itraxx Cruze motor scooter west bound on Tremont St near Waverley Ave on 11/05/2020 at 10:28 hours. Ward stated that west bound traffic had a green light and he proceeded into the intersection. Ward stated that as he was approximately halfway into the intersection when vehicle one crashed into the right front of his vehicle. Ward stated that he was ejected from his motorcycle and onto the hood of vehicle one. Ward was wearing a helmet and his head had contact with vehicle one's driver side windshield causing substantial damage. Ward was evaluated by Newton Medic Unit 3 and refused medical treatment. Ward signed a patient refusal form provided by the medics. Ward had visible head lacerations that caused minor blood loss. Witness Jose David stated that he was riding on a motor scooter behind Ward. David stated that west bond traffic on Tremont St had a green light and that vehicle one did not stop at a red light. Based upon statements made to me and my observations of the involved vehicles, I issued Qualter MA Citation T2016100 and cited her for a violation of MGL 89/9 , failure to stop at a red light. I took photos of both vehicles and the disk was downloaded by the NPD's IT Bureau. Both vehicles were towed by Tody's Towing, and I filled out towed motor vehicle forms. During my investigation of this crash I discovered that the motor scooter that Ward was operating is classified as a motorcycle, because it's cylinder capacity exceeded 50cc. Ward's vehicle speedometer indicted that it's top speed was 50 MPH, and it's VIN tag stated it was a motorcycle. I observed that there was no license plate on Ward's vehicle and he stated to me that it was unregistered. A check of the MA RMV had no record of Ward's vehicle and also revealed that Ward's driver's license was suspended on 12/04/2018. It was also revealed from a of the MA RMV data base that witness Jose David's driver's license statue is expired non renewable as of 01/23/2017. David stated to me that he did not have a driver's license. I also discovered that David's motor scooter was classified as a motorcycle, because as with Ward's vehicle it also had a cylinder capacity exceeding 50cc. David stated to me that his vehicle was unregistered. I issued David MA Criminal Application T2015901 and cited him for violations of MGLs 90/10, operation of a motor vehicle with out a license, 90/34j uninsured motor vehicle and 90/9 , unregistered motor vehicle. I issued Ward MA Criminal Application T2015902 and cited him for violations of MGLs 90/23 , operating a motor vehicle after suspension, 90/34j, uninsured motor vehicle and 90/9 unregistered motor vehicle. I filled out an Operating After Suspension Affidavit and faxed it to the MA RMV Driver Control Unit.
