TL;DR

RIPTA CEO Scott Avedisian will be charged with a misdemeanor for leaving the scene of an accident after a fender bender in a McDonald’s drive-thru. Avedisian allegedly rear-ended a car, motioned the other driver to pull over, and then drove off without reporting the crash to the police. This isn't the first time Avedisian's driving has made headlines, as he was involved in another incident in 2022. The Attorney General's office will handle the prosecution due to a conflict with the local solicitor, and RIPTA has confirmed that Avedisian remains an active employee.
