UPDATE: Crash at 35th/Fauntleroy entrance to eastbound West Seattle Bridge

(SDOT camera images)

12:02 AM: A crash reported as involving two vehicles has the eastbound entrance to the West Seattle Bridge blocked right now, according to what officers have told dispatch. So far, SFD hasn’t been summoned, so apparently no serious injuries.

12:37 AM: Police have taken one of the drivers, a woman, into custody, and a tow truck has taken away the most seriously damaged car, seen in the top image. SDOT is cleaning up the debris.

The other car involved is on the right side of the SDOT camera image above.

12:48 AM: Police are reopening the inside eastbound lane at the crash scene.

    This looks all too familiar.

    70 mph is not unusual on that bridge.  Zero enforcement.

      It doesn’t say anything about 70 mph. And I really don’t think they run speed traps at midnight. You do know there is a shortage of police,  especially in West Seattle.

      SPD’s still losing officers.

    We happened upon this last night coming back to West Seattle from Seattle. This happened at the intersection before the bridge. So this was traffic heading towards the bridge in front of Pecos Pit. The Tesla had full airbags deployed and the Toyota or whatever the other car was was seriously smashed. We thought there were 3 cars involved. Was a real mess.

    Always surprised that’s not the intersection with the photo enforced camera.  Would be a huge revenue source.

Sorry, comment time is over.
