The driver sustained a cut on his head in the crash just before 3 p.m. on westbound Madison Avenue west of the Camp Merritt Memorial Circle, which spilled a half dozen or so bottles into the street.

That side of the circle was closed for a block for just under an hour as workers cut sections from the tree and the van was removed.
