Collision

• The other driver merged into my lane, as he wanted to take a left at the next intersection north of Stark (Burnside) and created a collision

His Damage

As he merged and hit me, you can see that the side of his car is the only area affected, which is consistent with him merging

too early, as most likely i was in his blind spot. He was not directly in front of me and i failed to stop, as there is no

damage to the rear of his car

My Damage

The damage to my car is on the front right, nothing on the center, or side of the car

White lines

There are also solid white lines heading North on 10th avenue towards the intersection, discouraging lane changes

Witness

As soon as the collision happened, a few pedestrians on the sidewalk turned to witness what happened. I asked if they saw the collision and they (including Melissa Adams) said that they hadn’t. Once we had both pulled over, Melissa brought a man over who claimed to have seen what happened. He said that it

looked like i hit him, and provided no other details. We asked if he could stay to talk to the police who we were going to call, and he said no. He gave his number

hastily and left the scene. It was my impression that he did not see the whole event occur, and he provided no details and left quickly.
