Ms. Nevada Tracy Rodgers
Reigning Ms. Nevada Tracy Rodgers remains in critical condition Tuesday afternoon after a traffic accident last week.
Rodgers was driving on I-15 near Moapa Thursday morning when her Red Camaro rear-ended a Chinese tour bus that was attempting to make an illegal U-turn.
Rodgers, 41, suffered fractures to her neck, back, wrists, pelvis and both legs and was rushed to the University Medical Center, where she has undergone several surgeries.
The bus was operated by U.S. Asian Casino Tours, but the California-based company’s operating authority had been revoked earlier in June for failing to provide proof of insurance. Eight passengers on the bus were also injured in the accident.
Rodgers, a nurse and single mother of two, was set to compete in the Ms. United States competition at the Las Vegas Hilton in July.
