An unidentified woman crashed a minivan into a day care center in Billerica, MA this morning, authorities said. There was no one injured in the crash.

Ferraro said that the police and firefighters were quick to respond to the crash at the KinderCare Learning Center. "We prepared for the worst, and as it turned out, the staff did a great job, and the fire guys got there and got the kids out," Ferraro said.
According to the police, the driver was attempting to park the minivan when the crash occurred. It is thought that her foot may have slipped off the brake and hit the gas pedal, though the police are still investigating the cause of the incident.

Vehicle Accidents
How do I deal with the residual effects of a Massachusetts car accident? At the time of the accident, I did not feel any pain, however, I did later that night.

I was involved in a car wreck recently in Massachusetts. My son sustained upper back and neck injuries and I suffered a concussion. The insurance adjuster is offering us $750 for pain and suffering.
