Nara Smith is safe after a scary driving experience on the East Coast.

The 23-year-old creator took to Instagram Stories on Jan. 20 and shared her "wild" night after she lost control of the car when she drove in the snow the previous night.

"Last night I was driving home and it started snowing," she explained. "I thought I would make it but ended up with my car sliding down a hill and blocking the road with my tires spinning out."

After her car slid down the hill, Nara revealed that she called her husband Lucky Blue, 26 — who is currently in Italy for Milan Fashion Week — and "said a prayer" together.

After the initial slip, she added that the "nicest guy helped drive my car to the closest parking lot," which happened to be at a local French restaurant. She shared that she ate "the most amazing dinner" while she waited for the roads to be cleared by the snow plows and shared a photo of her food.

When she finished dinner, Nara attempted to head out on the road again and found her car couldn't make it up the hill, so she sought help from the restaurant's "head chef [who] got in my car and had everyone push with no success." Her car wheel broke while they tried to move the car and she decided to leave it behind, commending the restaurant's owners who were "so kind and drove me home."

While Nara got home safely, she called the evening "the wildest experience with a lot of anxiety and tears." She said she "couldn't be more grateful" to the "kindest, most pure-hearted people" who helped her, adding that she got "emotional just thinking about it."

"Everything that transpired after that was divine intervention," she wrote in her Stories. "Every time I felt helpless or too upset to even form a clear thought, there was some kind stranger helping me. Whether it was driving my car for me, parking across from me and giving emotional support or the plow driving ahead of me to make sure I made it safely."
