The California Highway Patrol identified the 20-year-old Eureka woman as the victim of the wreck which took place on Saturday.

The incident happened when Zora Culps was driving a 2017 Subaru Impreza south on Highway 101, north of mile post marker 32.30, in Humboldt County.

At the same time, a 1997 Toyota 4Runner was going north. For an unknown reason, the Toyota crossed over the solid double yellow divider lines into the southbound lane.
