1 D-3 (Funkey) was traveling on his left side. Rall told me he heard Funke�s motorcycle squeal his
2 brakes and realized that a car had pulled out in ftont of them. Rall said he also put on his brakes
3 and that he could not swerve to the left because Funkey was there. Rall said he saw the car
4 continue to roll into the roaciway and when it got hatfway across Monterey and in front of him in his
5 lane, he hit the car on its right side, fell and slid. Rall told me that immediatefy after he stopped
-6 sliding, he got up for a moment but then fell back down.
17
I 8 D-3 (Funkey} related he was north on Monterey Ave. in the # 1 lane approaching Sagewood at
19 about 60 mph while driving V-3 (Buell). Funkey said he was traveling just left of Rall and a bit
?0 ahead of his motorcycle. Funkey him and Rall were traveling about the same speed when `all of a
Z'1 sudden' he saw a car pull out from Sagewood in front of them. Funkey told me the car did not stop
Z2 when it entered onto Monterey. Funkey said he just `slammed' on his brakes and went down.
Z3 Funkey told me he did not know if Rall's motorcycle had hit the car or not. Funkey cor�finned that
?4 he did not collide with Rall prior to the car pulling out.
Z5
26 W-1 (Bisbas) related he was north on Monterey Ave. in the center lane approaching Sagewood
27 and traveling about 35 mph. Bisbas said he was traveling behind the finro motorcycles. Bisbas told
28 me the motorcycles did not appear to be speeding and were traveling at a `regular' speed. He said
29 the yellow bike was traveling next to and on the right side of the other one. Bisbas said he saw a
30 silver car pull out from Sagewood onto Monterey and then the car pulled out again farther and
31 onto Monterey. Bisbas told me he saw the yellow motorcycle hit the sitver car and the other
32 motorcycle slid across the pavement. Bisbas added that the silver car was in the middle of the
33 road when it stopped.
34
35 W-3 (Kolbeck) related he was north on Monterey riding a motorcycle and behind both the Harley
36 Davidson and the Buell Motorcycles. Kolbeck said as he approached Sagewood, he saw the silver
37 car pulling out from Sagewood onto Monterey. Kolbeck told me he thought the car was intending
38 to make a left tum and when it entered Monterey, it continued and struck the Harley Davidson
39 causing the Harley Davidson to swerve into the other motorcycle—V-3 (Buell). Kolbeck said both
40 motorcycles went down and slid across the pavement.

1 SUPPLEMENTAL REPORT
2
3 PURPOSE:
4 The purpose of this supplemental report is to provide the following: 1) Notification, 2)
5 Statements, 3) Evidence.
6
7 NOTIFICATION:
8 I was advised of this injury traffic collision at about 0659 hours by Motor 71 (Deputy Rod
9 LaBrecque). I responded from Fred Waring and San Pablo and arrived on scene at about 0706
10 hours. When I arrived I observed a white female adult, later determined to be D-1 (Gardner)
11 standing in front of V-1 (Jeep). The vehicle was on Sagewood Drive, just east of the limit line with
12 Monterey facing west. I observed a fluid trail that led from V-1 westbound out into the number two
13 northbound lane of Monterey. At the end of the fluid trail in the number two lane was a skid marlc
14 that began south of Sagewood. That skid continued north until the location of the fluid trail and
15 then veered to the left and continued north. Refer to photographs for further.
16
17 STATEMENTo:
18 D-1 (Gardner): The following is a summary of her sfatement to me. I asked D-1 if she was injured
19 and she told me she was not. I asked her if she moved her vehicle after the collision and she told
20 me she backed it up to the location it was now. I pointed to the AOI where I observed a skid mark
21 that deviated to the left and to where I observed a fluid trail that led from the AOI to V-1 and asked
22 D-1 if that is where she backed her vehicle from. D-1 told me that it was. I asked D-1 to tell me
23 what she remembered. D-1 told me she was preparing to make a right tum from Sagewood at
24 Monterey. D-1 told me she observed two northbound motorcycles with one in the middle (number
25 2 lane) and the other in the far right lane (number 3 lane). D-1 told me she watched as the two
26 motorcycles collided into each other. D-1 told me after the two collided, "The force banged them
27 into me".
28
29 I asked D-1 to show me where she thought she was when she was looking at the two motorcycles
30 colliding. She walked to the area of the limit line for westbound Sagewood at Monterey. The
31 location she showed me was about ten feet north of the area of impact in the number finro lane.
32 The location Cr;e showed me was also north of where her vehicle was currently stopped. The
33 location where V-1 was currently stopped is directly east of the AOI. The fluid trail goes from the
34 AOI, east to V-1's location, which is south of where D-1 was describing as the location she was
35 when she observed the collision of the two motorcycles.
36
37 I asked D-1 why she thought the two motorcycles collided and she told me, "I guess they were
38 startled there was a car here (me). I guess they thought I was going to pull out". D-1 told me she
39 also saw a group of motorcyclists a short�distance behind where the two collided. D-1 estimated
40 there were maybe ten motorcycles.
