Troopers said Enges had attempted to turn left across the highway from Gales Street when the cars collided in the westbound lanes.
Gritman and a passenger, Patricia Gritman, 73, of Sequim were taken to Olympic Medical Center.

Richard Gritman was not listed as a patient, an OMC nursing supervisor said.
