The former Desperate Housewives actress admitted that the crash had mirrored the plot of her character, Dr Megan Hunt in new crime drama Body of Proof.
"I was hit by a bus two weeks before we started filming and broke two fingers exactly like [my character Megan's] accident in the pilot," Delany said.
"I was in Santa Monica, 8:30 in the morning, and my car was totaled, and I'm lucky to be alive," she said. "As I was turning, they hit my passengers side."
