A woman from Kenmore is under investigation for drunk driving after causing a three car collision. One of the vehicles that was involved in the accident was a pickup driven by her husband.
The 34-year-old woman pulled her 2007 Ford Explorer over to the side of the road before making a U-turn, a witness said.
Her 33-year-old husband driving behind her was unable to stop his pickup in time to avoid the accident.
Her husband tried to swerve away but ended up hitting her vehicle, pushing it into another car.
The woman was rushed to a hospital for head and abdominal injuries.
It is unknown whether the
woman was drunk at the time. Police are awaiting lab results.
The woman admitted to drinking wine at home but did not believe it affected her driving.
Her 7-year-old daughter was a passenger. She was not injured.
Both cars were towed from the scene.
