Actress Joyce Jimenez figured in a car accident early Monday in Urdaneta, Pangasinan and is now being taken to the Medical City in Pasig for treatment.
ABS-CBN's morning show "Umagang Kay Ganda" reported that Jimenez and her group - road manager Don Boy Espiritu and personal assistant Lenlen Transpote -were on their way back to Manila around 3 a.m. from a taping in Baguio City when the accident occurred.
The vehicle, Toyota Forerunner, reportedly flipped four times after it tried to avoid an oncoming truck.
Jimenez was reportedly wearing a seatbelt, avoiding a more serious injury.
Jimenez's friend, actress and host Ruffa Gutierrez, said in a text message that Jimenez is set to be transferred to The Medical City in Pasig City from a hospital in Pangasinan.
Gutierrez said Jimenez was sitting in front of the car and sleeping.
"[The] airbag worked. It saved her life!" Gutierrez said.
Jimenez, who got married recently in the United States, is in the Philippines to promote her lingerie business.
