The Island County coroner has released the name of a motorcyclist killed near Deception Pass Bridge on July 3.
Robin Lindgren, 42, a Bow resident, died at the scene of the traffic collision, Island County 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 F-150 truck, according to a Washington State Patrol report. 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 Nelson Root, 19, of Oak Harbor, the State Patrol reported.
She died instantly, the coroner said.
Brian Farrett, 49, of Edmonds, was a passenger in the Ford F-150 truck.
Lindgren was wearing a helmet.
The State Patrol reported that inattention was the cause of the crash.
Bishop said there is no indication that drugs or alcohol were factors in the accident, but toxicology results are pending.
