ASSIGNMENT/ARRIVAL
On 08/29/2025 at approximately 1502 hours, I happened upon a two vehicle collision in the
intersection of S 3rd Street and Main Avenue S in the city of Renton, King County,Washington.
UNIT 1: BMW X5
Upon arrival I observed a white BMX X5 (WA/CRB5248, Unit 1) stopped facing east in the
eastbound number one (closest to south curb) lane of S 3rd Street east of Main Avenue S. Unit 1
had non-disabling, minor damage to the rear-driver door and leading edge of the rear-driver
fender. Unit 1 had been moved from its point of rest prior to my arrival.
UNIT 2: FORD FOCUS
I observed a black Ford Focus (WA/BSE5173, Unit 2) stopped facing south in the intersection of
S 3rd Street and Main Avenue S in the southbound number-two Lane prolongation of Main
Avenue S. Unit 2 had moderate, disabling front end damage. Unit 2 had not been moved from its
point of rest prior to my arrival.
WITNESS: MORA HERNANDEZ, DANIEL
I was immediately approached by a witness, Daniel Mora Hernandez(DOB: 05/27/1991),who
told me the following:
Daniel was driving east on S 3rd Street toward Main Avenue S behind Unit 1. The traffic signal at
S 3rd Street and Main Avenue S turned from a solid-yellow circular signal to a solid-red circular
signal, indicating for S 3rd Street traffic to stop.
Unit 1 disobeyed the solid-red circular signal and drove into the intersection, colliding with Unit
2.
This incident occurred in the sCity of Renton,King County,Washington State.
!declare underpenalty of perjury under the laws of the State of Washington that the foregoing is true and correct.

Cortes by her valid Washington Driver License and established her as the driver of Unit 1 by her
admission. Cortes was not injured in the collision.
DRIVER 2: FUNFSCHILLING, COLLIN M.
I contacted Collin M. Funfschilling(DOB: 09/04/2000) in the driver seat of Unit 2. 1 positively
identified Funfschilling by his valid Washington Driver License and established him as the driver
of Unit 2 by his admission. Funfschilling was not injured in the collision.

Sebastian N. Cortes (DOB: 03/13/2010)was identified and established as the uninjured right

Funfschilling drove Unit 2 south on Main Avenue S in the number two lane and stopped at the
stop-bar just before the intersection of S 3rd Street for a solid-red circular traffic signal.

2 from a stop into the intersection. Funfschilling heard the unknown vehicle sounding its horn in
the number one lane next to him. Unit 1 suddenly entered the intersection eastbound on S 3rd
Street, running the red light. Unit 2's front bumper collided with Unit 1's rear-driver door in the
intersection.
Cortes,the driver of Unit 1, said something to the effect of, "I know", when Funfschilling said
Cortes ran the red traffic signal.
This concluded my conversation with Funfschilling.
PROXIMATE CAUSE
I determined the proximate cause of the collision by the witness' statement, Funfschilling's
statement, damage to both vehicles, and Unit 2's point of rest.
Cortes' actions were the proximate cause of the collision, namely her violation of RCW
46.61.050(1), which states:
The driver of any vehicle, a person operating a bicycle, and every pedestrian shall obey,
and the operation of every personal delivery device shall follow, the instructions of any
official traffic control device applicable thereto, and as specified in this chapter, placed
in accordance with the provisions of this chapter, unless otherwise directed by a traffic
or police officer, subject to the exception granted the driver of an authorized emergency
vehicle in this chapter.
Cortes was faced with a steady solid-red circular signal, as defined in RCW 46.61.055(3)(a),
which states:
Vehicle operators facing a steady circular red signal alone shall stop at a clearly marked
stop line, but if none, before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection
or, if none,then before entering the intersection control area and shall remain standing
until an indication to proceed is shown. However,the vehicle operators facing a steady

circular red signal may, after stopping proceed to make a right turn from a one-way or
two-way street into a two-way street or into a one-way street carrying traffic in the
direction of the right turn; or a left turn from a one-way or two-way street into a one-way
street carrying traffic in the direction of the left turn; unless a sign posted by competent

control area to complete their movements.Vehicle operators planning to make such

Lawfully within the intersection control area as required by RCW 46.61.235(1).
