“Chrisley Knows Best” star Savannah Chrisley survived a terrifying car accident on Monday.
“I got in a car accident early Monday morning because my floor mat had gotten stuck behind my pedals so I looked down for a brief second to try and get it out of the way and then I realized that I was headed straight towards the guardrails,” she wrote. “I tried to over correct but it didn’t help. As soon as I hit the guardrail my airbags came out,” she explained on Instagram.
Chrisley, 19, said that a number of cars passed by before anyone stopped to help her.
“What I do remember is going in and out of consciousness screaming for help and cars just continued to pass,” she continued. “It felt like I had been laying there for at least twenty minutes begging for help.
“The next month or so I will be recovering from a broken vertebrae which has caused numbness in my hands and fingers and pain all throughout my neck, back, and shoulders,” she added. “While recovering physically I’m going to take time to recover spiritually and mentally as well. I want to be the best version of myself possible and that will happen. We all make mistakes…all that matters is how we learn and grow from them. I truly believe that God has used this situation to open my eyes to what is truly important in life and to put my focus back on Him in order to live the right life and be unbelievably happy.”
The Atlanta-based starlet also had a message for her critics.
“To all of you hurtful people that are saying that I deserved it and got what was coming for me,” she wrote, “you need Jesus and I’ll help by praying for you.”

I agree, and like the show, too.
That was my first thought, too. She's a danger behind the wheel. How many wrecks has this kid had??? She's lucky it wasn't worse. Wish her the best but perhaps she should also reflect on her driving skills or lack there of. Glad it was the guardrails and not another car.
How about He “allowed” it to happen?
It’s campy but a fun little show with family values.
Get her to Hillsdale or Liberty College stat...or daddy no pay tuition. Meanwhile her brother sees this example and runs amok
Sending the kids to work at a farm was a funny episode. Hopefully they don’t stray too far from God too.
Didn’t want to make it blatant, considering the seriousness of the story.
the show is well done and not too annyoying like the Kardashians. hope the fame doesn’t go to their heads too much
How about she took her eyes off the road at speed and tried to adjust her floor mat....natural consequences
“Control” is an illusion
The show is ok, it’s one of the more wholesome things on TV. These people are fairly good role models for today. Sort of like the millennial version of “Leave it to Beaver”. But I will say this girl is consumed with a superficial lifestyle. She exhibits no situational awareness or any behavior grounded in reality. I wish her well in her recovery.
Unconditional love - God loves us even when we make goofy choices, even more than once. But we could make it so much easier if we listen the first time He tells or shows us some thing to change or do/not do.
Hope she heals quick and stays in good communication with God.
