1Opinion of the Court
— Judgment *1083unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: Defendant’s motion to suppress statements was properly denied. The police officer’s questioning of defendant at the scene of the automobile accident about what had happened, who owned the car, whether he had been drinking and whether he had been driving the vehicle was clearly investigatory, not custodial, interrogation (see, People v Palmiere, 124 AD2d 1016; People v Aia, 105 AD2d 592, 593; People v Brown, 104 AD2d 696, 697; People v Gardell, 59 AD2d 929). Defendant’s later statement, made at the police station, was also properly admissible.
