The cause of a multi-vehicle accident on the eastbound lane of the [Belt Parkway this morning](/breaking-belt-parkway-lanes-closed-due-to-a-major-crash-near-bay-parkway-exit/) has been revelead.

Henry Brimsley was driving in an eastbound lane and made a careless U-turn after spotting a parked police car on the shoulder. He started driving against traffic, the wrong-way, to avoid the cops. He may or may have been evading the speed-trap.

He was driving a black Honda and crashed into a van that hit another vehicle, according to the [New York Daily News](http://www.nydailynews.com/news/belt-parkway-crash-injures-11-driver-henry-brimsley-face-multiple-charges-article-1.1102545?ref=bklyner.com#ixzz1yw0O4FPk).

His reckless move caused a three-car crash that sent 11 people to Lutheran and Coney Island hospitals. Luckily, no one was killed.

Brimsley was booked on several charges including reckless endangerment and driving with a suspended license. He was treated for a broken leg.
