David Arquette, the crazy man in Hollywood a few weeks ago before Charlie Sheen came in to steal the title, was involved in a head-on car crash in SoCal yesterday which resulted in only minor injuries. The cause of the crash is not yet known but it is being reported that Arquette‘s car veered into oncoming traffic and that is when he slammed head-first into another car. The driver of that vehicle suffered minor injuries as well. According to tweets posted just after the accident on his official Twitter profile, Arquette was not wearing his seat belt … but, thankfully, he was well enough to post messages to Twitter.

David Arquette was just involved in a head-on collision and he’s injured … TMZ has learned. David was driving in West Hollywood just a few minutes ago … when his car veered into oncoming traffic. David is lying on the ground right now — bleeding — as fire trucks are racing to the scene. A witness tells TMZ … David was behind a car that stopped suddenly. David then swerved to the left to avoid hitting the car and went into oncoming traffic. David slammed into a car going in the opposite direction. David was driving a silver Cadillac. We’re told David was on his way to Burbank airport to board a private jet which was going to Las Vegas, for the grand opening of Sugar Factory — a candy store at the Paris Hotel. He was supposed to attend a party hosted by Kim Kardashian. He’s being taken away by ambulance right now. Authorities now say the drivers of both vehicles suffered minor to moderate injuries.

Just after the accident, Arquette started posting a bunch of messages on Twitter … and then some of them were deleted from his timeline. Here are the tweets that he did not delete and are still viewable online:

Remember to wear your seatbelt-wish I was. / It was a miracle the woman I hit was uninjured- Thank God! / I was on my way to catch a plane to Vegas to help my buddy Stevie D open his restaurant The Sugar Factory / so sad i’m going to miss it but glad to be alive for a rain check. Refused all pain medication-may the record state- still sober!

Here is the text of a tweet that Arquette posted and has since deleted:

Apparently he decided not to make light of the situation by making a joke about “tiger blood” (a reference to the crazy rantings of Charlie Sheen) so he decided to change the tweet to read “dragon blood”:

And then the tweet was deleted altogether. My guess is that the jokes were removed from his Twitter timeline so that they can’t be used against him if/when he gets sued by the other driver. As we learned yesterday from Courtney Love, the misuse of Twitter can cost you a pretty penny.

It’s just very good news that no one was seriously injured in this accident. Even tho he doesn’t follow his own advice, YOU should always wear a seat belt while driving or being driven in a car. This accident could’ve turned out very tragically … thank goodness David Arquette and the other driver will live on to see another day.
