Dick Van Dyke acquired right into a automotive crash in Malibu … although he managed to keep away from severe harm.

Regulation enforcement sources inform TMZ … police responded to a name of a single-car accident final Wednesday morning, and when deputies arrived they discovered Dick behind the wheel of a 2018 Lexus LS 500 which he’d crashed right into a gate.

Our sources say the 97-year-old movie and TV legend advised cops his automotive slid and he misplaced management earlier than slamming into the gate. The streets have been moist from the nonstop rain L.A.’s been getting.

As for Dick’s accidents … we’re advised he was bleeding from the nostril and mouth and might need suffered a concussion. Paramedics handled him on the scene, and he had little interest in going to a hospital.

Dick’s taken a beating onscreen throughout his seven a long time in Hollywood … so we’re guessing a couple of minor bumps and bruises do not faze him a lot.

Our sources say medication and alcohol have been NOT concerned … although cops have submitted paperwork to the DMV requesting a driving retest for Dick, with one of many elements being his age.
