The Island County coroner has released the name of the motorcyclist killed near Deception Pass Bridge July 3.
Robin Lindgren, a 42-year-old Bow resident, died at the scene of the traffic collision, Coroner Robert Bishop said.
Lindgren was riding a 2002 Honda motorcycle alongside a friend on another motorcycle. They were headed north on State Highway 20.
Leslie McMahan, 50, of Edmonds was also driving north, just in front of the motorcyclists, in a 1999 Ford F150 truck, according to the Washington State Patrol. She stopped on the highway to turn into the parking lot just before the bridge.
The motorcyclists were unable to stop in time to avoid a collision.
The male motorcyclist reported to investigators that he veered right and Lindgren went left to avoid the truck. He said her handle bar hit the back corner of the truck and she was thrown onto the pavement in the other lane of traffic, according to Bishop.
Lindgren was struck by an oncoming 2001 Ford Ranger driven by 19-year-old Nelson Root of Oak Harbor, the State Patrol reported.
She died instantly, the coroner said.
Brian Farrett, 49, of Edmonds was a passenger in the Ford F150 truck.
Lindgren was wearing a helmet. The State Patrol reported that inattention was the cause of the crash.
Bishop said there was no indication that drugs or alcohol were factors in the accident, but toxicology results are pending.
