A distracted driver was speeding when she rear-ended another vehicle on Interstate 205, causing a three-vehicle crash, according to Washington State Patrol.
Arzoo Ghadami, 25, was cited for driving too fast for conditions, according to a WSP crash memo.
Shortly before 5 p.m. Thursday, Ghadami was driving a silver Toyota Camry in the southbound lanes of the freeway near the state Highway 14 exit when she crashed into a gray Subaru Tribeca that had slowed for traffic. Then, a blue Toyota RAV-4 SUV slammed into the back of Ghadami’s car, troopers said.
Ghadami “was distracted and exceeding a reasonably safe speed,” troopers said.
She was injured in the crash and taken to PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center. A hospital spokesperson said Friday that she was treated and released.
The other drivers were uninjured.
