The accident took place at about 8:58 a.m. at the Matson Bridge Interchange.

A 32-year-old Yakima woman was driving a northbound vehicle with two little girls (ages five and 11).

At the same time, a 40-year-old woman was driving a southbound 2015 Toyota Corolla approximately half a mile south of Selah.

The authorities said the Yakima woman turned left in front of the southbound Toyota Corolla.

As a result, the two vehicles collided.
