Actor Dwyane ‘The Rock’ Johnson has spoken out after his mother and cousin were involved in a horrific car accident.

Thankfully, both women survived.

The former wrestling star posted this picture of the vehicles involved in the crash on his Facebook page, which has over 38 million fans.

He wrote:

“My mom and cousin (Lina Fanene) were struck head on by a drunk driver this week – they survived. My first reaction was to find the person who did this and do unrelenting harm to them. But then you realize the most important thing is that my family lived thru this and we can hug each other that much tighter these days. Hug your own family that much tighter today and be grateful you can look them in the eyes and say, “I love you”. Bear hugs and gratitude. Drunk driving accidents are 100% preventable. #ChoicesMatter[SIC]

Johnson recently completed shooting on the set of Fast & Furious 7 opposite Michelle Rodriguez and Vin Diesel. He joined the series for Fast Five in 2011. In November of 2013, co-star Paul Walker sadly lost his life when a car he was a passenger in struck a concrete pole and burst into flames.
