A 94-year-old driver lost control in bad weather, crashing into WSDOT workers on SR 395, injuring four, one critically.

A crash on SR 395 in Kennewick injured four WSDOT workers when a 94-year-old driver, possibly due to a medical episode, lost control of his vehicle, crossed into oncoming traffic, and struck them. One worker was in critical condition, while three others had minor injuries. The driver also sustained minor injuries and was not under the influence. The incident has intensified calls for safety improvements on the hazardous highway stretch, which has seen multiple fatal crashes in recent years. Heavy rain and high winds are also affecting the region, with flood warnings in the Yakima and Naches river areas.
