Krystal posted a photo of the car she and her family were riding in — which was totaled — and used the photo’s caption to provide an update on how she, her husband Andrew Sandubrae and their 1-year-old daughter Hensley are recovering after the terrifying accident.

The “Daddy Dance With Me” singer also encouraged her nearly 10,000 Instagram followers to never drive drunk.

“Our 4th turned pretty horrific. Hensley, Drew and I were on the way to watch fireworks on the 4th,” Krystal captioned the photo of the wrecked car. “A drunk driver almost took the lives of my entire family. We all survived the wreck but it's gonna take some time to heal. Keep us in your prayers. Hug your babies and spouses tight. DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE.”

Krystal, 31, is the second-oldest daughter of Toby Keith. She has released one solo album to date and sang with her father on his 2004 single “Mockingbird.” She and her family live in Oklahoma, her father's home state.
