Bronx Woman Drove While License Suspended: Police

YORKTOWN, NY — A woman from New York City was accused of driving with a suspended license and without insurance after an early morning traffic accident.

The Yorktown Police Department said Rose Montgomery, 42, of Bronx, was charged with third-degree aggravated unlicensed operation, a misdemeanor, and operating without insurance, a traffic infraction.

Police said, around 3:40 a.m. Friday, an officer responded to the 300 block of Underhill Avenue for a report of a motor vehicle accident.

A computer check at the scene found that Montgomery's driving privilege in New York was suspended for failure to answer a summons, police said, adding that she was also driving without insurance.

Montgomery was arrested and released on her own recognizance. She is scheduled to answer the charges in the Yorktown Justice Court Dec. 9.
