Miles Teller got in a seriously scary car accident, but luckily he’s okay
Our thoughts go out to actor Miles Teller, who was involved in a car accident Thursday night with an Uber driver. According to Teller, the collision was caused when his car was struck by another vehicle making a dangerous left turn, causing the Bleed for This star’s Ford Bronco to roll onto its side. Teller’s girlfriend, Keleigh Sperry, was in the passenger’s seat.
Luckily, both were unhurt. But Teller was nonetheless furious at the situation, and took to Twitter to share his story:
Me and @keleighsperry are okay. I hope the other passengers are as well. The other driver pulled into oncoming traffic and bad accident was

Unavoidable. This woman's irrational and ignorant decision put our lives and her passengers in very real danger. Happy we could walk away

According to TMZ, police deemed Teller was not at fault, stating that “the Uber driver made a left when it was unsafe.”
The Uber passengers suffered more physical consequences of the accident.
LAPD Officer Aareon Jefferson told The Hollywood Reporter that one was taken to the hospital for "minor injuries." Another complained of "minor pain." "No charges were made. Just a street accident," he clarified.
Keleigh Sperry posted a pic of Teller’s blue Bronco last year.
Sadly, this isn’t Teller’s first car accident. In an interview with ABC earlier this year, he discussed a nearly-fatal accident nine years ago, where a car he was a passenger in flipped multiple times. He was ejected from the passenger seat and left unconscious.
My buddy thought I was dead," Teller told ABC host Peter Travers.
We’re glad this crash was much less severe, and hope that everyone injured recovers quickly.
Drive carefully out there, guys!
