By Ryan Bradley, Esq.

Tracey Gutierrez, 41 of Warrenton, Missouri was driving her car on Highway D near Highway T in Warren County, Missouri at approximately 10:00 p.m. on March 25, 2008 when an unknown vehicle crossed the center line and hit his 2001 Ford Taurus.

The driver of the car still remains unknown. According to Gutierrez, the impact forced him to leave the roadway, go down an embankment and hit a tree. Mr. Gutierrez was transported by helicopter to St. John's Medical Center in Creve Couer, Missorui, where he was listed in serious condition. It is unknown if Gutierrez was wearing a seat belt at the time of the crash.

Mr. Gutierrez will be afforded car insurance coverage for uninsured motorist benefits under his own auto policy. In Missouri and Illinois, drivers who are injured by hit and run drivers are entitled to collect under their own insurance policies.
