Melissa Vander Waal, 22, of Sumas was driving south at about 7 a.m. when her 2000 Ford Focus swerved into the northbound lane. Coral Bernal, 25, of Bellingham, was headed north and saw the Ford move into her lane. Bernal turned her 1998 Toyota Corolla into the southbound lane to avoid the Ford, but Vander Waal turned back into her lane at the same time and the cars collided head-on, according to WSP.
