Comedian Robert Schimmel, perhaps best known for his work on "The Howard Stern Show," was involved in a car accident in Arizona on Thrusday and is currently in "very serious" condition.

Schimmel's 19-year-old daughter was reportedly driving at the time and the comedian was in the passenger seat. Sources say the daughter swerved to avoid a collision in her driving lane and the automobile rolled over on to the side of the freeway.

According to TMZ, who first reported the accident, Schimmel's daughter was hospitalized and is in stable condition and expected to make a full recovery. His 11-year-old son was also in the car; he was released without injuries the same day.

Schimmel is still in the hospital and in "very serious" condition, with his family at his bedside.

Schimmel has released a number of comedy albums. He is also a cancer survivor who was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in 2000 and underwent chemotherapy. He wrote the book "Caner on $5 a Day (chemo not included): How Humor Got Me Through The Toughest Journey of My Life" about his struggle with the disease.
