Kim Kardashian recently escaped a harrowing car accident after a motorist ploughed into her Mercedes.

The 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' star was behind the wheels of her 140,000 dollars Mercedes G Wagon, when an unnamed driver smashed into the side, the Daily Star reported.

She was waiting to turn left at a junction, when the motorist traveling in the opposite direction approached with his right indicator flashing, but failed to make the turn and was seen ploughing into the luxury car.

Kardashian and the other driver drove to the nearby Beverly Hills Hotel to exchange insurance information and it is believed that they settled the incident amicably.
