Nobody was injured in a collision that closed State Highway 20 in San de Fuca for about an hour this morning.

State Trooper Dave Martin said David Powell, 80, was driving a 2004 Volkswagen Passat at about 9 a.m. He pulled onto the southbound lane of the highway from Holbrook Road in front of an oncoming 1994 Ford F-150 pickup driven by David Scott, 28, of Oak Harbor.

The two vehicles collided into the southbound lane.

Martin said Powell did not see the pickup in the fog.

Powell was cited for failure to yield.

Powell’s passenger, Beatrice Powell, had trouble getting out of the car because of the damage from the collision, which delayed the cleanup, Martin said.

Scott’s 3-year-old daughter was in the pickup with him but was properly restrained and wasn’t injured, according to reports.
