A crash on westbound State Route 522 near 195th Friday morning caused all the lanes of SR-522 to close in Woodinville.
The left lane has reopened, and traffic has backed up at the chokepoint, creeping by emergency crews at the scene.

A vehicle crashed and rolled over onto its top. A pickup was also involved in the incident.
Drivers should expect long delays.
Washington State Patrol Trooper Rick Johnson told KIRO 7 that the crash is possibly a road rage incident.
At 6:40 a.m., the left lane reopened, but the right lane is expected to be closed “for an extended period of time,” said Johnson.
The driver of the rolled-over vehicle was taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries.
