Honolulu police traffic investigators examine the scene of a fatal crash in Kaneohe Sunday afternoon.

The medical examiner identified the 87-year-old woman who died Sunday after her car sideswiped another vehicle.

An autopsy will be performed to determine cause of death for Mary Wusher, of Kaneohe.

Police said Wuscher was slumped over her steering wheel of her 2005 brown Toyota sedan and appeared to be unconscious when she hit a white 2011 Honda that was stopped at a traffic signal on Kamehameha Highway near  Waikalua Road .

The 29-year-old driver of the Honda from Waipahu was not injured.

Speed and alcohol do not appear to be factors, police said.

The accident occurred around 4:30 p.m. near the Kaneohe police station.

Wuscher was taken, in critical condition with internal injuries, to Castle Medical Center, where she died.
