SUMMARY OF INCIDENT:

On 04-18-06 Deputy Kachajian was dispatched to the area
of 1324 Lower Newton Road for a report of a two car motor
vehicle accident with unknown injuries. Upon arrival on
scene with AmCare Ambulance, Deputy Kachajian was
able to determine that neither party was injured as a result
of the crash. Upon further investigation it was learned that
the operator of Vehicle #2, Mr. Bean, was attempting to
back out of a driveway located ay 1324 Lower Newton
Road when his vehicle was struck by Mr. Fiske, the
operator of vehicle #1, as he was traveling west on Lower
Newton Road. Both vehicles sustained moderate damage
but were able to be driven from the scene by their
respective operators. The cause of this accident is
believed to be through the fault of both operators. It is
believed at this time that the operator of vehicle #2 failed to
use care when backing out of the driveway onto Lower
Newton Road. It is also believed that the operator of
vehicle #1 may have been traveling at a speed greater
than the posted speed limit for that area of Lower Newton
Road. Neither party were issued moving violations as a
result of this accident.
