SUMMARY OF CRASH:
On 06/06/21 at approximately 12:41 hours, I was dispatched to the area of 5173 VT Route 14, Newport Center for a report of a motor vehicle crash. Dispatch advised that there were no injuries reported.
Upon arrival, both vehicles were off the roadway. A subsequent investigation determined that the crash was caused by Vehicle #1 veering left of center heading east on Route 14 side swiping Vehicle #2 which was heading in the opposite directions. Damage to the vehicles and statements made by the Operators were consistent with what was observed. Operator #1 was not impaired and stated that he had looked down at something in his vehicle.
This crash appeared to be caused by inattention/distraction.
