Reportedly, Martin Lawrence recently had a serious accident late at night while returning home from a film set. However, as of now, neither Martin nor an established news outlet has addressed the speculation; therefore, it is most likely just a rumor.
As per the hearsay, at around 2 am, he slept while driving, causing his car to go off the road and then crash into a highway divider.

Moreover, doctors are closely watching Martin Lawrence, who is supposedly in critical condition. However, neither of the claims has been confirmed by the Lawrence family or close friends.
