Arnold Schwarzenegger Was involved in a car accident on Friday afternoon shifts who saw his huge SUV colliding with another vehicle, injuring the other driver badly.
The former governor, 74, was driving a GMC Yukon SUV along busy Sunset Boulevard, about a half-mile from his home in Brentwood, when he collided with a red Prius at 4:35. The impact of the crash was so strong that the collision resulted in the Prius’s airbags deploying.
Star’s SUV then started rolling on a white Porsche Cayenne which was directly behind Schwarzenegger.
Law enforcement says they believe the accident was the fault of the Terminator actor, who was attempting to turn left but not waiting for a left turn arrow at the intersection of Sunset and Allenford Avenues.

The accident comes exactly ten years after Schwarzenegger splits from his estranged wife, Maria Shriver. The divorce of both was finalized on Tuesday.
The pair remained famous for years after the journalist filed for divorce on July 1, 2011, following the news that she had given birth to a child – Joseph Baena, with their housekeeper, Mildred Patricia ‘Patty’ Baena.
The divorce remained in limbo for a decade due to both a ‘lack of motivation’ and a complicated property settlement agreement with his empire, including a Brentwood mansion, an Idaho holiday home and several investment properties.

Francis Xavier Church in Hyannis, Massachusetts, in 1986, the couple had a net worth of more than $400 million, but had to split in half because they had no prenups, according to the blast,
The actor has made no secret of his forays into the real estate world and has previously revealed that he earned his first million on property rather than acting. He said: ‘I didn’t depend on my film career to earn a living’.
Prior to Arnold’s recent filing, nothing had been done about the divorce case with Maria in four years, with ‘the last being a change of address for one of Arnold’s lawyers.’
Maria was represented by renowned divorce lawyer Laura Wasser while Arnold hired Christina Royce.
Joseph was born on October 2, 1997, shortly after Maria gave birth to the couple’s fourth child, Christopher.
But it was not until May of 2011 that it was revealed that the homeowner’s child was his.
