Posted Friday, December 2, 2022 3:48 pm By The Chronicle staff  Both lanes of Interstate 5 were closed south of Olympia for three hours and 32 minutes Wednesday evening after a passenger car hit a southbound semi-truck, struck the Jersey barrier and came to rest in the northbound lanes.  The Washington State Patrol responded to the crash just after 7:50 p.m. on Nov. 30.  The passenger vehicle was traveling in the far left lane of southbound I-5 when, just south of 113th Avenue SW in Olympia, it merged into the center lane and struck the semi-truck.
