Date: July 27, 2010

Location: Discovery Bay

Type: Car Accidents, Motor Vehicle Accidents

Outcome: One Severally Injured, Multiple Minor Injuries

A Seattle man was airlifted to Harborview Medical Center after being in a head-on collision on U.S. Highway 101 on Monday morning in Discovery Bay. State troopers said an SUV crossed the center line and crashed into an oncoming sedan near W. Uncas Road at approximately 10:10 a.m. 

The driver of the car that was struck, a 34-year-old Seattle man, was airlifted to Harborview Medical Center with a compound fracture to his arm. 

The SUV that crossed the center line was carrying a Utah family. According to reports, the driver sustained cuts to his arms and left leg. He and his family were taken to a Port Townsend hospital to be checked out. It is truly a blessing that no one was killed in this head on collision. Head-on collisions typically account for only 2.0% of all crashes, yet accounted for 10.1% of US fatal crashes. 

The cause of the crash has not been determined, and the investigation is ongoing. The area where the crash occurred was closed for approximately an hour after the crash.
