The world was shocked in November of 2013 when Fast and the Furious star Paul Walker passed away as a result of a horrific car crash. According to CNN, Walker’s friend Roger Rodas had been driving a 2005 Porsche Carrera GT at speeds of over 100 mph with Walker in the passenger seat when the car spun out of control, hitting several trees before bursting into flames.
Mindy Kaling
The star of The Office and The Mindy Project, Mindy Kaling, fortunately walked away from a terrifying Los Angeles car accident. While the actress didn’t suffer any serious injuries in the wreck, she was bombarded by fans seeking selfies and autographs while she awaited a tow truck at the scene.
David Spade
Nobody was laughing after comedian David Spade's 2017 car crash in Los Angeles. His Range Rover was totaled while he made a complex left turn in front of The Beverly Hills Hotel. Fortunately, even though the Lights Out host was sent to the hospital, he only suffered minor injuries.
Kris Jenner
The senior Kardashian had quite a scare in 2016 when her brand new Rolls-Royce was wrecked near her home in Calabasas. The crash, which happened on the 101 freeway, resulted in a broken wrist for Jenner, but luckily nothing more severe.
In February 2015, Caitlyn Jenner was involved in a four-vehicle accident on Malibu’s Pacific Coast Highway that resulted in the death of 69-year-old Kimberly Howe and the injury of seven others, as reported by The Los Angeles Times.
Jenner had reportedly rear-ended Howe with her Cadillac Escalade, pushing Howe's Lexus into traffic, where she was struck by a Hummer.
While CNN would later report that no charges were levied against Jenner, she would be sued for negligence for her role in the accident. According to court documents obtained by The Blast, the resulting settlement saw Jenner pay $800,000 in early 2018.
