Ka-bong! Brookline cab rear ended

Another accident at the intersection of Commonwealth Avenue and Charlesgate West, but this time on the westbound side, where a car rear ended a Brookline cab and pushed one of its wheels up on the sidewalk. I have seen such accidents before, but they are much less frequent than the red-light running accidents in the eastbound lanes.

I don’t know exactly what happened, but I’m guessing it had something to do with at least one of the cars driving in the turn-only left lane without actually turning. Neither driver was hurt I don’t think there any passengers involved. No ambulance was called to the scene.

Some pictures from after the accident:

It wasn’t the biggest of collisions, but it was strategically placed.

The boys from Ladder 26 spread some sand before taking off.
