PORT LUDLOW — Two people were taken to hospitals in Bremerton and Port Angeles after two cars and a semi-trailer truck were involved in a collision Tuesday on state Highway 104 just east of Garten Road.
One patient was taken to Harrison Medical Center in Bremerton, another to Olympic Medical Center in Port Angeles, with non-life-threatening injuries, said Port Ludlow Fire & Rescue Chief Brad Martin.
None were identified.
Martin said a westbound vehicle tried to pass the truck at high speed and clipped the back of the trailer.
An eastbound vehicle swerved to avoid the passing car and struck a guard rail.
The incident was under investigation Tuesday afternoon by the State Patrol. Jefferson County Sheriff’s deputies also responded to the collision.
