Reckless driving: A 25-year-old Sammamish man was arrested for reckless driving after he lost control of his vehicle around 9:02 p.m. in Redmond. The driver was traveling southbound on Avondale Road, heading toward SR 520 near Union Hill Road, when his car spun around into oncoming traffic, clipped a car traveling northbound and sheared a Puget Sound Energy pole, according to Redmond Police spokesperson Jim Bove.

“Luckily, there were no injuries, but a few seconds earlier, it could have been much worse,” Bove stated. “We suspect speeding, but because of the time of day and wet roads, it was difficult to tell if there were marks left. It’s still being investigated as far as that is concerned.”

He said it did not appear that drugs or alcohol were involved.
