Action star Dwayne Johnson has a lot to be thankful for. His mother and cousin were in a serious car accident when a drunk driver struck them. Fortunately, the two survived. They were hit head on, and Johnson posted photos of the wrecked cars on Instagram, along with messages of gratitude and hope. One of them read, “Hug your own family tighter today and be grateful you can tell them you love them.” The 42-year-old has a close relationship with his mom, Alta. His cousin is Savelina Fanene, a WWE Diva.
Johnson is no stranger to hardships. His family experienced financial woes as he was growing up, with his parents divorcing, losing their jobs, and having to move frequently. Determined to do better, Johnson became a famous wrestler, naming himself The Rock. He ventured into films, garnering success through The Fast and the Furious franchise, The Game Plan, and most recently Hercules.
Though he is angry at the driver who hit them, Johnson is more about being grateful his family is alive. The image of the accident shows the major damage done on both vehicles. Both cars are totaled, and there were emergency workers on the scene. His cousin posted a photo of herself on Instagram sitting in a plane with sling. She also uploaded a photo of herself and Alta in a car before the accident. Johnson posted a photo with him visiting Fanene in the hospital.
Drunk driving kills thousands of people every year, and is a major cause of car accidents. There are no additional details about the accident involving Johnson’s family, including the condition of the drunk driver. The wrestling star is happy that his family made it through this horrible ordeal. What now waits is for legal action to be made against the driver.
