WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Two people were taken by ambulance from the scene of a two-car collision at the corner of Main Street and Luce Road on Monday afternoon, police said.
 
According to a police report, Laura Martin of Shaftsbury, Vt., was exiting Luce Road and pulled into the path of a vehicle driving east on Main Street at 5:22 p.m.
 
Police Officer John J. McConnell wrote that the 2014 Subaru driven by Suzanne Graver of Williamstown was traveling east on Main Street and was "unable to avoid [Martin's car], striking the front."
 
Both Graver's vehicle and Martin's 2001 Ford went off the road and into a row of bushes at 147 Main St., according to the report.
 
Graver and Martin were transported from the scene by Northern Berkshire EMS with apparent minor injuries, police said.
