Beyoncé Knowles walked away from an incident in London early last week that involved a collision between her parked car and an approaching taxi. While on her way into Harrods department store for a shopping visit, the taxi nearly hit Knowles, but timing saved the singer from more serious harm. Knowles opened the door of her chauffeured Mercedes Benz S-Class to exit the car, but it was swiftly torn off its hinges by the oncoming taxi.

According to onlookers, the singer was shaken up after the taxi avoided hitting her by mere inches. Knowles and husband Jay-Z were en route to Japanese restaurant Zuma when they made a stop at the department store. The couple was picked up soon afterwards and taken to dinner, where photos were snapped of Beyoncé laughing and appearing unharmed.
