A southbound vehicle struck the freeway median on Interstate 5 southbound a mile north of the Winchester exit on Thursday morning.

An Oregon State Police report said just after 10:30 a.m. the driver, an Oakland resident, began to choke on her coffee. It was unknown if she lost consciousness but the sedan drifted to the left and struck the center barrier before coming to rest.

The vehicle was towed from the scene.
