A tour bus carrying country musician Travis Tritt was sideswiped during a crash that left two people dead in South Carolina, he said.
The bus was sideswiped while trying to avoid the crash after a driver going the wrong way hit another car, he added.
The tour bus was slightly damaged as it tried to avoid the crash, he said.
“Bus damage can be fixed, but lives cannot be replaced,” he tweeted. “It could’ve been so much worse. God was obviously watching over us tonight.”
He also shared an update about the driver of the Jeep.
“I’m told that two people were killed in tonight’s accident as the result of someone who was obviously driving drunk or impaired,” he wrote.
He then gave a reminder to his fans and followers: “Just a sober reminder to everyone to never drive if you’ve been drinking or impaired in any way. Uber or Lyft is just a phone call away.”
He also implored people to be safe.
“I beg everyone to please, please, please drive sober. Know when to admit that you are too impaired to drive,” he wrote.
The Horry County Fire and Rescue said two people died during a multi-vehicle crash about 3:30 a.m. Saturday, while a third person suffered minor injuries. It did not identify the victims.
The accident involved two vehicles and a tour bus, with no reported injuries on the bus, it said.
