“Gabriela was transferred to the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago on Friday; she’s unable to speak and is paralyzed on her left side.

“It looks like she has vision loss in the left eye, which is sewn shut because there’s a paralysis associated with that and they don’t want her eye to dry out.”

According to CBS 2 Chicago, Cedillo was driving in the westbound lane while stunt vehicles being towed by flatbed trucks drove in the opposite lane in excess of 50 miles per hour, as part of a stunt being filmed on September 1 for Transformers 3.
