The Hyundai traveled off the right shoulder of the road and struck some rocks before crashing into a tree, trapping the woman inside, CHP Officer Kevin Pearlstein said in a statement. CHP reported she was traveling about 65 miles per hour.

According to the medical examiner’s office, Richeson was wearing a seat belt and was the only occupant in the car. She died at the accident scene, authorities reported.
