In August of 2000, Petra was the victim of a brutal car accident as she crossed a street in Venice, California. winding up in a coma and with major injuries. She broke several ribs, her pelvis, and nearly lost an eye. Doctors inserted a permanent metal rob in her right leg. Her hospital stay and subsequent physical and cognitive rehabilitation therapy resulted in a successful recovery, but incurred astronomical medical bills. Without any medical insurance, the music community on both coasts banded together to perform a string of benefits to help her with her recovery and her bills. These benefits included performances by Beck, [[Tenacious D]], her brother Josh Haden (Spain), Stephen Perkins, The GoGo’s, Vincent Gallo, Sean Lennon, Miss Murgatroid and many more. Likewise, a double seven-inch benefit record was released in 2003, including exclusive tracks by [[Weezer]], [[Phantom Planet]], Ben Kweller, and [[AM Radio]]. With the love and support of her friends and family, Petra made an astonishing recovery and by 2003 was back at work creating her own music and collaborating again. | In August of 2000, Petra was the victim of a brutal car accident as she crossed a street in Venice, California. winding up in a coma and with major injuries.
