No injuries after car strikes guardrail in North Adams

NORTH ADAMS — Local police, firefighters and Northern Berkshire Ambulance responded to a crash at Union and Gallup streets at about 12:15 p.m. Sunday.
"Slippery road conditions caused the car to leave the road and strike the guardrail," Nick Mantello, North Adams Fire Department photographer, wrote on the North Adams 911 Facebook page.
The car was heading west when it slid into the guardrail due to slippery conditions, according to North Adams Police Chief Mark Bailey. Traveling in the car was a mom, dad and daughter. No one was injured and the car was towed.
Mantello reminded people to avoid driving. "The roads are much less than safe!"
After the crash, a firefighter offered a firefighter's hat to a girl in the accident.
"Once again, our Firefighters (Firefighter Jeff Tycot) was there for moral support for the young passenger who was involved," Mantello wrote. "A lady's fire hat and a quick fix to the zipper on her jacket really helped the tension and cold weather."
Bailey reminded residents that police are enforcing the city's parking ban during its snow emergency.
"During this period, parking on all city streets is prohibited," Bailey said. "Vehicles that impede snow removal operations will be towed."
