Authorities are still investigating a head-on car crash in Osage County Missouri that happened early Monday morning.  23 year-old Lane Saebens was traveling in the wrong lane on southbound Missouri Highway 89 when her vehicle crashed head-on with another car.  The driver of the other vehicle, 64 year-old Myra Schmitt of Morrison Missouri was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash.  The collision was extremely violent and both vehicle appeared to sustain complete damage.

The surviving family members of Myra Schmitt should seek consultation with an experienced Missouri accident & injury attorney to discuss the possibility of filing a wrongful death claim against the negligent driver of the other vehicle.  The Missouri Wrongful Death Statute will dictate whether or not certain family members will be able to recover for the premature death of a loved one.  Family members should act quickly, as the applicable statute of limitations for wrongful death claims in Missouri is three (3) years.
