Jaromir Jagr involved in serious car accident involving a tram
Yesterday Jaromir Jagr announced at the age of 51 he would be returning for another year of professional hockey. Unfortunately that wasn't the most eventful point of Jagr's day. According to his own Instagram, Jagr was involved in a significant accident with a speeding tram and to his own admission, it was his own fault.
Jagr took to his Instagram to share the photo of his vehicle and some information about what happened.
Dear fans, but also everyone else. I would just like to briefly tell you what happened today when I was involved in a traffic accident. It was my fault. I was trying to cross from one direction to the other on Plzeňská Street. I was checking the other side and at the right moment I drove into it. But there was a lot of traffic and I didn't have time to react to a tram that was going at high speed in the same direction as me. I spotted it half a metre in front of me, at the last moment. I thought that was the end of me. I have always believed that a higher power has a protective hand over me, and today I was convinced of that again. Thank God! And I was also surprised and actually saved by my KIA, which despite how scary it looked, I climbed out of unharmed. But most importantly, the passengers on the tram were unharmed. I would like to end this sad event with this. And thank you all for your understanding and also for helping those who intervened at the scene.
It's good to hear that Jagr and everyone involved were unharmed in the accident, but this clearly could have been much worse.
