CHP report on Hwy 4 head-on collision

   According to the CHP report, at approximately 1:55 PM on September 4, 2015 Blanca Morales (34) of Stockton was driving a 2013 Honda Accord with passenger Maria Morales (63) of Stockton, westbound on Hwy 4, east of Utica Dam.

   Linda Gruneisen (74) of Fair Oaks, was driving a 2012 Toyota Rav 4 eastbound, east of Utica Dam, when she allowed her Toyota to veer left from the eastbound lane of Hwy 4 at an unknown rate of speed.

   As a result, the Toyota crossed over the solid double yellow lines and into the oncoming westbound lane directly in front of Morales.

   The front end of the Toyota collided with the front end of the Honda, causing major collision damage to both vehicles.

   All parties sustained major injuries as a result of the collision and were transported (Gruneisen) to Doctors Medical Center and both (Morales) to Memorial Medical Center in Modesto.

   This is the collision that closed Hwy 4 in both directions for over an hour. See "Head-on collision on Hwy 4" on September 4, 2015 for more details.
