Who sidewiped these Lawrenceville cars?

The suspicions were true. A city of Pittsburgh spokesperson confirmed Tuesday that a salt truck did sideswipe some cars in Lawrenceville, but it wasn’t the plow that caused the damage. According to the city, an auger motor used to spread salt from the back of the truck apparently malfunctioned and was not tethered to the truck.

It’s unclear why the driver didn’t report the accident until Tuesday and the city will determine if disciplinary action is warranted.
In the meantime, this has cut into the livelihood of the victims especially one that also drives for Lyft.

A spokesman for the city said she needs to file a claim with the city and they will likely cover the damages.
