Two people from Randle were injured this afternoon when their car ran into another car that had lost control on Interstate 5 in Clark County.

Margaret E. Sundstrom, 66, was transported to PeaceHealth Hospital, after the collision which occurred just before 3 p.m. near milepost 16, north of Vancouver, according to the Washington State Patrol.

Her passenger William L. Little, 68, was injured as well, according to the state patrol.

Sundstorm’s 2005 Buick LaSabre was described as totaled.

Troopers responding to the scene said a 55-year-old Portland driver was merging onto the freeway southbound from Northwest LaCenter Road when she swerved right to avoid a semi truck, overcorrected, veered back in to the center lane and was struck broadside by the Buick.

That driver, Thuy T. Vu, was taken to PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center as well, according to the state patrol. Her 1989 Dodge Dynasty was also totaled.
