Flagpole MVA

Police report a two-vehicle accident at the hazardous flagpole intersection where Main Street, West Street, and Church Hill Road intersect.

Motorist Michael Testani, 57, of Brookfield was driving a 2002 Dodge Caravan minivan southward on Main Street, behind a southbound 2002 Ford F-350 pickup truck driven by Louis Bianco, 35, of 21 Paugussett Road, police report.

The Ford then started to make a right turn onto West Street and was sideswiped on its right side by the Dodge, which attempted to pass the Ford on the right, police said.

Police said Testani told them he thought that Bianco was making a left turn onto Church Hill Road, so he attempted to pass the Ford on the right side.

There were no injuries. Police issued Testani a written warning for passing on the right.
