While wearing a neck brace from her room in London, Minnie Driver revealed to fans that she had been in a "really bad car accident" while in France a "few days ago."
In a video shared to Instagram on Thursday, the Oscar-nominated actress said that she and her friend, Ben, were traveling on a country road when their car was struck by another vehicle that failed to stop at an intersection. "We somehow walked out it… Well, we didn't walk out of it, we crawled out of it, but we did get out of it alive," she said, adding that the crash was "not our fault."
Driver continued, "I've got a sprained neck, and I'm really in shock and sort of cry all the time, but I'm going to heal." The actress credited the "tiny Kia EV2" they were driving as "the reason that I'm not dead," and said the car's "360-degree airbags" saved their lives. She joked, "This is categorically not a car ad."
"I want to celebrate that car. I'm Minnie Driver, pun intended, I need to celebrate the car that saved us," Driver said. "Because we've got families and people who love us and I am so grateful to be alive, so, Kia, you are a baller car company. You're amazing."
