The driver in Sunday's fatal crash on the Seward Highway was in a separate hit-and-run collision just before she died, police say.
The Anchorage Police Department on Wednesday identified the driver as 31-year-old Jasmin O'Neill of Anchorage.
O'Neill died late Sunday when her out-of-control SUV "launched" off the Tudor Road overpass and onto the Seward Highway below, police said at the time. Witnesses said the speeding SUV couldn't make the turn onto the northbound highway on-ramp.
Police on Wednesday said O'Neill was speeding south on Lake Otis Parkway just prior to her fatal collision when she tried to turn west onto Tudor.
She missed the turn, hopped the center median on Tudor, and collided with the front right corner of a vehicle stopped at the traffic light in the eastbound lanes of Tudor at Lake Otis, police said in a press release.
O'Neill continued driving westbound on Tudor without stopping, police said. The other driver was uninjured.
Phone calls to 911 about the fatal crash and the hit-and-run collision both came into police dispatch at 8:13 p.m.
Police say it won't be known if drugs or alcohol were a factor until toxicology results are received in several weeks.
