PLATTSBURGH — Two elderly Plattsburgh women were involved in a two-car accident Monday morning.
Teresa L. Carter, 83, was stopped at the traffic light at the end of Labarre Street facing the Route 3 intersection at about 10:39 a.m., according to Plattsburgh-based State Police.
Carter, who was driving a Buick, inadvertently took her foot off the brake and hit the gas pedal, causing it to roll into a car that was stopped in front of it, which was being driven by Ruth A. LaPoint, 84.
LaPoint complained of pain after the crash and was treated at CVPH Medical Center.
