Terry told News-Gazette after the crash on Interstate 57: "It just happened. I nodded off.
"I rolled the car over, and I woke up, and I was in a cocoon.
"Unfortunately, it totaled the car."
He was left with a cracked sternum and quickly rushed to the Carle Foundation Hospital in Urbana for treatment.
Terry is still bedbound and receiving medical care.
He continued: "I was able to get up and get out of the car.
"I have a little back pain and neck pain. It's nothing that can't be overcome."
The accident came after a one-off reunion concert held at the State Farm Center in Illinois in honor of REO Speedwagon.
Terry joined the iconic band back in 1968 and was the frontman for four years before he left in 1972.

Mum left in stitches after baby scan photo bears striking resemblance to popular TV presenter, but do you see it?
Plus, other comical baby scans that have left people cracking up OH BABY Mum left in stitches after baby scan photo bears striking resemblance to popular TV presenter, but do you see it? Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A PREGNANT woman roared with laughter after realising a scan of her unborn baby looked like . . . Strictly and Traitors host Claudia Winkleman. Amy Baldwin, 38, was amazed when the grainy 12-week ultrasound last week seemed to show a bob and fringe similar to 53-year-old Claudia's famous locks.

"As soon as she said it, I couldn't unsee it. Every time I look at it, I just laugh. 'Claudia is a national treasure but I'm not sure I want to give birth to her!' Influencer Amy then shared the image with her 70,000 TikTok followers. Among the viewers was Gogglebox star Scarlett Moffatt, who posted: 'Claudia's cute, so your baby will be.' X Factor stars Jedward also joined in, quipping: 'Middle name or first better be Claudia.' But others reckon the foetus looks more like lanky-haired comic Noel Fielding. Amy, from Hastings, East Sussex, added: 'The comments have kept me entertained for days.' It's not the first time a baby scan has caused a laugh. A mum-to-be previously shared her image of her twins, with them in a rather unfortunate position.

We recently shared how Claudia Winkleman looked totally different as she went bare-faced after eye op and revealed she was banned from wearing her trademark eyeliner. The Traitors host, 53, gushed about her doctor following a successful procedure. Claudia revealed she would be forced to go without her trademark eyeliner for weeks after her June op as she recovered. Although she didn't go into detail about what she had done, it was thought to be laser eye surgery, which is used to correct vision problems. Posting a snap of her cuddled up to her eye doctor Julian, Claudia wrote on social media: "This amazing human makes me see. "He's operated on my eyes before and he did it again today. "No eyeliner for weeks and I sleep in googles (no words) but I'm eternally grateful. "Do NOT zoom in on my left eye - it's wonky. "Thank you Julian. I paid for the treatment, this isn't an ad. "I just love him. It's very possible I'm still a bit sedated. Night night." In May, pictures were leaked of Celebrity Traitors being filmed in the Scottish Highlands with what looked like a Trojan horse. The 19 celebs on the show, hosted by Claudia, include Stephen Fry, Charlotte Church, Kate Garraway, Jonathan Ross and Celia Imrie. They have all had to hand over their phones to crew to prevent them from discussing game plans on the show, expected to air in October.

Miley Cyrus goes totally nude and reveals massive rib tattoo on Perfect magazine cover
Miley recently spoke out for the first time about speculation of a family rift after rumors of tension began circulating online OH MY-LEY! Miley Cyrus goes totally nude and reveals massive rib tattoo on Perfect magazine cover Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MILEY Cyrus has gone totally nude and revealed her massive rib tattoo on the Perfect magazine cover. Superstar Miley, 32, drove fans wild with her latest project as she shared the image on Instagram.

An 80 page special edition zine photographed by Paolo Roversi and Lynette Garland. "Styled by Katie Grand. A fashion epic (starting with no fashion). An instant classic. Cover 1/6. "Pre order now, link in bio, shipping 11th August." Miley looked sensational in the stylish black and white image with her flowing locks hanging loose over one shoulder. As she stared moodily at the camera, the stunning singer covered her modesty with an outstretched arm. She also showed off her magnificent dream catcher tattoo that she's had since 2011. Fans flocked to the comments section calling the superstar an icon and praising the image. And one fan wrote: "The woman you are!!! We love you Miley." Another added: "The Power of this woman." A third said: "OMG she broke the internet again." Miley Cyrus reveals hospital dash after filming for her music video caused shock illness While another said: "Oh my goodness, are we back at the nakedness again. "I was so ready for her to shed all of that and focus on her talent… And be taken seriously. "Sorry guys I'm just not as impressed as you are." Miley revealed a few months ago that she was dashed to hospital after filming for her music video caused a shock illness. She explained her surprise stint in intensive care caused her to develop a nasty infection, despite only shooting on the popular Hollywood Walk of Fame. In a recent interview with DJ Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1, Miley revealed she suffers from a large polyp on her vocal cords, as well as a condition called Reinke's edema - both of which make touring nearly impossible. Miley recently spoke out for the first time about speculation of a family rift after rumors of tension began circulating online. The 32-year-old singer addressed the rumors in a heartfelt statement shared to her Instagram Story, as she shut down the ongoing chatter around her mom Tish Cyrus-Purcell and her dad Billy Ray. She also addressed her relationship with her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, 62, acknowledging their complex relationship but insisting they are in a good place. In the past year, Billy Ray has found himself at the center of allegations of domestic abuse from Firerose, which he has denied. He also made headlines for a widely criticized performance at an inauguration event for former President Donald Trump, which was marred by technical issues and awkward moments. He is now dating Austin Powers actress Liz Hurley, 59. However, none of his six children including daughter Noah have liked or interacted with any of their posts together online. It comes as Miley's mom was last year accused of stealing husband Dominic Purcell from daughter Noah - and Noah was supposedly exiled from her mom's wedding. 5 Miley revealed she suffers from a large polyp on her vocal cords, as well as a condition called Reinke's edema - both of which make touring nearly impossible Credit: Getty

"She pours her heart, vision & magic touch into every detail, and today, we raise a glass to her! Happy birthday to our founder." Mum-of-two Meghan sent out a newsletter last week revealed her Napa Valley Rosé was crowned "The IT drink for summer". She added: "We are pleased to share that our 2024 Napa Valley Rosé will be available for purchase next week." Advertisement It comes after it was revealed the brand's new Rosé will set back punters $30 a bottle and Meghan also plans to bring out a sparkling wine. The 2023 Napa Valley Rosé is on sale via a new wine section on Meg's As Ever website. The Rosé costs $30 (£21) a bottle, or in packs of three for $90 (£65), a half case for $159 (£115) and full case for $300 (£218). It is being flogged on new website - where more booze will be added. Advertisement Meghan is set to reveal a sparkling wine among new wine varieties. But the Rosé is described by As Ever as "a pale blush wine offers a roundness and depth of flavor that is complemented by gentle minerality and soft notes of stone fruit with a lasting finish". REAL motive behind Harry & Meghan's 'peace talks' REVEALED - but it's a confused plan that won't work They claim the tipple is an "As ever blend" which includes "Cabernet Sauvignon, Mourvèdre, Grenache, and Syrah varietals". The taste is described as "sophisticated, dry, and refreshing, it is designed for summer's best moments – from lunches that turn into dinners and sun-drenched weekends where the only thing louder than the music is the laughter". Advertisement "This blend captures the essence of celebration, inviting wine lovers to toast all the moments that matter most - both big and small." When Meghan first announced her As Ever brand, it was embroiled in row after row over the trademark and logo. For her first few items, the website sold a range of products from £11 jars of jam to £22 limited edition honey. Within half-an-hour the range was out of stock, prompting Meghan to post on Instagram: "Our shelves may be empty, but my heart is full!" Advertisement Fans snapped up the £11 raspberry preserve, which is marketed as a "luscious fruit-forward spread" in "elegant keepsake packaging". Meghan sent her jams to a number of celebrities who shared unboxing videos, including Kris Jenner and Zoe Saldaña. She then decided to "just pause" restocking her As Ever brand after previously selling out in under an hour. 5 The couple with their children Archie and Lilibet in the Netflix show Credit: Netflix
