Dodgingtown Accident

Police report a two-vehicle accident in the center of Dodgingtown about 4:12 pm November 18.

Motorist Sara Weir, 50, of Danbury was driving a 2001 Saab 95 westward on Route 302, near Jacklin Road, and then stopped for traffic at the intersection of the two roads, police said.

Westbound motorist Philippe Pirotte, 37, of Brookfield, who was driving a 1992 Nissan pickup truck behind the Saab, could not stop in time, so he swerved to the right, police said. The Nissan went onto a very steep embankment and then rolled onto its left side, striking the Saab, police said.

There were no injuries. Police issued Pirotte a written warning for traveling too fast for conditions.
