Miranda Lambert and her husband Brendan McLoughlin cut their road trip short after they were involved in a scary hit-and-run: ‘Nobody was hurt’
Miranda Lambert and husband Brendan McLoughlin were victims of a hit-and-run on an Atlanta highway, which left their airstream pretty banged up.
While nobody was injured after a small vehicle driving ‘erratically’ struck their passenger side, the incident cut their road trip short by a few days.
‘Y’all we made it home to Nashville. A few days earlier than planned,’ the two-time Grammy winner began in a lengthy caption about the accident.

She continued: ‘Unfortunately on the way home going through Atlanta, an a**hole in a small car with temp plates was driving erratically and tried to squeeze between us and a semi truck going 70 on I-20 W.’
‘It hit the airstream on the passenger side and sent us into the left lane,’ she wrote, before revealing the damage done to their beloved ride — which she nicknamed ‘The Sheriff.’
‘We fishtailed pretty good but got on the shoulder as quickly as possible to assess the damage. Nobody was hurt thank the good Lord. But nobody stopped either and the car sped away,’ she added.

Despite their set of wheels looking worse for wear, Lambert said she was ‘thankful that nothing worse happened’ and that the ‘vehicle and trailer were driveable.’
‘We made a report and hauled home,’ she told her 4.1 million Instagram followers on Thursday night. ‘. I called mama right away to say that I know her prayers are always heard cause I know she prays for us every morning about 4:30 am. Especially when we are on the road.’
The accident hasn’t deterred them from getting back on the road soon as she joked that they’d been back to their ‘vagabond ways soon’ after the repairs were finished.

On Wednesday, she had shared a number of photos from her recent trip to Charleston, South Carolina.
‘Dreamy Charleston, SC I miss you already.’ She added, ‘There is too much to say about this place for one post but here are some highlights.’
The Kerosene singer noted that she could ‘spend days in this town just looking at the beautiful historic homes and churches and the art galleries.’
Lambert finished her message by writing that she ‘could go on and on about this town and 3 days this time around wasn’t nearly enough. I can’t wait to go back. If y’all haven’t been to the lowcountry, you better GIT down there!’
