DISCOVERY BAY — A missed turn resulted in a wreck that caused injuries to two people at the interchange of Highways 101 and 104 Sunday afternoon.
According to a State Patrol report, at about 3:50 p.m. Sunday, Jeffrey B. Waters, 53, of North Bend was driving a white 1995 Chevrolet G20 van southbound on U.S. Highway 101 just south of state Highway 104 when he realized he had missed the exit to Highway 104.
He pulled onto the right shoulder of the highway, then made a U-turn across both lanes, the report said.
Kevin J. Pittenger, 26, of Renton, was driving a 2014 Volkswagen Tiguan, towing a utility trailer, also southbound on Highway 101.
Pittenger was unable to stop as the Chevrolet crossed the highway, and struck the Chevy broadside.
Pittenger, as well as his passenger, Rachel Ann Pittenger, 24, of Renton, were injured and taken to Jefferson Healthcare’s emergency room.
Waters was not injured
The State Patrol determined that the wreck was caused by Waters, and he was cited for an unsafe U-turn, according to the report.
