I am still in shock from last night\u2019s incident but grateful to be alive today. With the passing of my beloved mother, grief comes and goes in waves, and with Mother\u2019s Day approaching it has felt more like a tsunami,\u201d she told TMZ in March 2024. \u201cLast night I met a girlfriend for dinner, we talked and brought up some very emotionally sensitive topics. I was crying on my way home and saw a car heading right for me. I swerved to avoid the head-on collision, hit the divider and then a tree. I\u2019m hurt, bruised up a bit, but so grateful I am alive! I did receive citations, one of which was unrelated to the incident which is understandable, but what was most surprising is that the car that almost hit me just drove away!\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption \">\n<div class=\"ratio-based-placeholder\" style=\"padding-bottom:66.7%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium credit-added wp-image-4083309\" src=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/RHOPs-Karen-Huger-Spotted-at-Maryland-Jail-Amid-DUI-Sentence.jpg?w=1000&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all\" alt=\"RHOPs Karen Huger Spotted at Maryland Jail Amid DUI Sentence\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/RHOPs-Karen-Huger-Spotted-at-Maryland-Jail-Amid-DUI-Sentence.jpg?w=100&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 100w, https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/RHOPs-Karen-Huger-Spotted-at-Maryland-Jail-Amid-DUI-Sentence.jpg?w=200&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 200w, https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/RHOPs-Karen-Huger-Spotted-at-Maryland-Jail-Amid-DUI-Sentence.jpg?w=300&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 300w, https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/RHOPs-Karen-Huger-Spotted-at-Maryland-Jail-Amid-DUI-Sentence.jpg?w=400&amp;quality=70&amp;strip=all 400w, https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/RHOPs-Karen-Huger-Spotted-at-Maryland-Jail-Amid-DUI-Sentence.jpg?w=500&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 500w, https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/RHOPs-Karen-Huger-Spotted-at-Maryland-Jail-Amid-DUI-Sentence.jpg?w=600&amp;quality=55&amp;strip=all 600w, https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/RHOPs-Karen-Huger-Spotted-at-Maryland-Jail-Amid-DUI-Sentence.jpg?w=700&amp;quality=70&amp;strip=all 700w, https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/RHOPs-Karen-Huger-Spotted-at-Maryland-Jail-Amid-DUI-Sentence.jpg?w=800&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all 800w, https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/RHOPs-Karen-Huger-Spotted-at-Maryland-Jail-Amid-DUI-Sentence.jpg?w=900&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 900w, https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/RHOPs-Karen-Huger-Spotted-at-Maryland-Jail-Amid-DUI-Sentence.jpg?w=1000&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 1000w, https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/RHOPs-Karen-Huger-Spotted-at-Maryland-Jail-Amid-DUI-Sentence.jpg?w=1200&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 1200w, https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/RHOPs-Karen-Huger-Spotted-at-Maryland-Jail-Amid-DUI-Sentence.jpg?w=1400&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 1400w, https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/RHOPs-Karen-Huger-Spotted-at-Maryland-Jail-Amid-DUI-Sentence.jpg?w=1600&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 1600w, https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/RHOPs-Karen-Huger-Spotted-at-Maryland-Jail-Amid-DUI-Sentence.jpg?w=1800&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 1800w, https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/RHOPs-Karen-Huger-Spotted-at-Maryland-Jail-Amid-DUI-Sentence.jpg?w=1920&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) calc(100vw - 6em), (max-width: 1000px) 80vw, 1000px\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"credit\">Shannon Finney\/Bravo<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>She concluded: \u201cI would like to stress, it\u2019s important to <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/entertainment\/news\/rhops-karen-huger-enters-recovery-program-skips-reunion-taping\/\">understand your emotional state<\/a> when driving and may this be a reminder to all to use their seatbelts.
