Witnesses told Washington State Patrol troopers that a car was traveling at a "high rate of speed" around 4:30 a.m. Tuesday when it lost control and hit a gold Chevrolet Tahoe.
The Tahoe went over the right barrier of the freeway and fell 30 feet into a Seattle Department of Transportation parking lot near Spokane St.
