According to a statement issued by Day's management firm, his wife was taken to hospital after the accident as a precautionary measure before being treated and then released.

"Thankfully everyone is now resting comfortably," Day said in a statement. "They will all be monitored in the coming days.

"We want to thank the emergency services and hospital personnel for their assistance."

Day said the incident occurred near his RV motor home that he stays in while competing on tour.
