A deaf woman is accused of hitting a cyclist with her car and then driving off. Tracey Salter pleaded not guilty to the charges. The Kansas woman was supposed to appear in court last week, but didn't show up. She was arrested Monday and brought to court yesterday. Salter is accused of hitting Joseph Szymanski with her Chevrolet Malibu in La Quinta, California. He died at the scene. Salter was arrested a short time later, after she left the scene of the accident, Prosecutors say.
