Brian Austin Green's Car Accident

According to a report on the USA Today, Brian and his (then) wife Megan Fox, had been in a terrible car accident in 2014. A drunk driver in a MINI Cooper had smashed into their Range Rover in Los Angeles in November 2014. In his interview with the website, Brian stated that he felt thankful to be alive, as the accident could have ended very terribly.

Fortunately, the ex-couple’s sons, Noah and Bodhi, who were two and nine-months-old (at the time) respectively, were not in the car with them when the accident occurred. Brian had stated that the drunk driver was going 50 miles an hour when he hit them head-on. He stated that the accident was life-changing for him.
