I’m sure Cam Newton is thanking God that he’s alive and not severely injured after getting into a horrific car accident on Tuesday. According to witnesses, Newton’s truck flipped over two or three times after a collision with another vehicle near Bank of America stadium.
TMZ Sports has obtained new pics of Cam Newton’s truck which show just how bad it was banged up in Tuesday’s wreck.
After the collision, Cam’s Dodge Ram 1500 truck was hauled to a nearby tow yard. According to sources the truck sustained so much damage from the rollover crash, it’s considered a total loss.
It’s fortunate Newton didn’t have a passenger in the car because the roof on the front passenger side caved in when it rolled over. How lucky is he that the passenger side is caved in and not the driver’s side?
The truck was not your average Dodge Ram, it was reportedly pimped out for Cam including a custom lift job and other cool features.
Newton suffered two transverse process fractures in his lower back. While he may be bummed to lose his ride, I’m sure he’s happy to walk away with his life. Newton was reportedly responsive after the accident and didn’t even want to go to the hospital. It’s a good thing he was forced to and the fractures were discovered so they can be treated.
