It is not yet clear what caused the crash, which remains under investigation by police.
One Response
Westford Police doesn’t care about road safety. Try getting them to respond when motorists try to use their vehicles as weapons against pedestrians, and you get told not to use the crosswalk because it’s “too dangerous”. Do we need the motorists to cause property damage to be heard? Do people need to die first?
