Ms. Shellhamer stated to police “she was upset due to an unrelated incident, which caused her to be distracted. She further stated that she observed a green signal at the intersection of Route 46 and North Beverwyck Road but did not observe Mr. Bacosa’s vehicle prior to the crash. Rockaway Neck Volunteer Ambulance arrived on the scene and assessed all parties involved. All occupants of the Shaumik and Bacosa vehicles refused any further medial treatment.

Ms. Shellhamer was treated at the scene and then transported to St. Clare’s Hospital.
