By Kirk Bernard, Esq.

A head-on car crash in Washington Friday, involving two cars, shut down Highlands Drive on Friday. Drivers of both cars were transported by ambulance to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle.

A 21-year-old woman, the driver of one of the cars, was in critical condition. According to Issaquah Police Deputy Chief Steve Cozart, she was heading uphill (southbound) on Highlands Drive, crossed the center line and hit the other car head on.
