Robin Quivers 'almost killed' in hit and run

To hear Robin Quivers tell it, her weekend car crash was a near-death experience.

Howard Stern's sidekick was left literally quivering after another car smashed into hers then screeched off without a word. But in the end justice was served.

Quivers had been driving north on Route 9 on Sunday when the accident happened.

She took to the air Monday morning and told Stern that she was "almost killed."

"I was in a car accident," she explained. "This guy came out of a parking lot or some kind of side street like a maniac and he lost control of his car and he hit me. He spun around in a 360 and hit me."

When Stern asked why Quivers didn't slow down, she explained that she did, but that he was spinning out in front of her.

"He tried to make his turn shorter and he turned in the middle of the road. I was the only car there and he plowed into my driver's side door," she said.

Quivers said that Crockett then "backed up and drove off."

Stern congratulated her on living.

Then he added that he needs her so much on the show, if she's going to crash, it would be better to do on a Thursday or a Friday so he has time to deal with it over the weekend.

Priorities, you know.
