Correct Answer:
I witnessed an accident on June 15, 2016 at approximately 1:30 pm at 4th and Main St. in Mason, PA. There were 3 cars involved. One car, a black Mercedes rear-ended a red Chevrolet in front of it, which in turn was forced into a white Toyota van in front of it. Moments before the accident I noticed the driver of the Mercedes was talking on a cell phone. The light had turned red and the two cars in front of the Mercedes were already stopped when the Mercedes rear-ended the Chevrolet. I called 911 immediately and shortly after, the EMTs arrived and took one person to the hospital in their vehicle. The drivers appeared upset with each other.
the best summary is: i witnessed an accident on june 15, 2016 at approximately 1:30 pm at 4th and main st. in mason, pa. there were 3 cars involved. one car, a black mercedes rear-ended a red chevrolet in front of it, which in turn was forced into a white toyota van in front of it. moments before the accident i noticed the driver of the mercedes was talking on a cell phone. the light had turned red and the two cars in front of the mercedes were already stopped when the mercedes rear-ended the chevrolet. i called 911 immediately and shortly after, the emts arrived and took one person to the hospital in their vehicle. the drivers appeared upset with each other. the first summary leaves out much of the information from the witness’s notes. the third summary also leaves out information and includes irrelevant information. the fourth does the same but even more so.
