Betsy Schulberg of Quiogue was in an accident at the corner of Brook and Aspatuck roads. Her car and another collided, but there were no serious injuries, officers said.
Schulberg’s license was suspended because she did not appear for a scheduled eye exam, police said. She was transported to for minor injuries.

George Silvay accidentally launched his E350 Mercedes into a garbage can in front of 7-Eleven at around 9 a.m. The garbage can broke the convenience shop’s front window and fell into the store, according to police. The vehicle did not drive into the store, officers said.
Silvay told police that the engine was running and he was trying to get the car to idle when the accident happened.
No injuries were reported.

A 22-year-old man from Northport was arrested Friday at 3:11 a.m. on Old Riverhead Road in Westhampton Beach and charged with unlawful possession of marijuana, a violation. Police pulled the man over for speeding when they saw that he had a prescription bottle filled with marijuana leaves.
