Susan Olsen is known for playing Cindy Brady on The Brady Bunch, and she recently had a nerve-wracking moment on the road. The 63-year-old actress was spotted in Southern California when she nearly experienced a driving mishap. Thanks to a quick-thinking bystander, what could have been a messy situation was swiftly avoided.

Olsen has largely stayed out of the spotlight in recent years; however, she was spotted running errands before heading to her teaching job. After loading items into her SUV, she attempted to drive away without realizing her trunk was still wide open. Fortunately, an observant passerby rushed to alert her, preventing a potential disaster.

The incident unfolded in a parking lot, where Olsen had just finished grocery shopping. As she pulled out of her space, bins and bags in her trunk threatened to spill onto the pavement. A man in a white muscle tee and baseball cap noticed the situation and hurried to her car, waving his arms to get her attention.

Realizing the issue, Olsen immediately stopped and secured her trunk before continuing on her way. The near-miss was a reminder of how everyday distractions can lead to accidents. While the Brady Bunch star avoided serious trouble, it was a close call that could have resulted in a roadway hazard.

Life after ‘The Brady Bunch’ for Susan Olsen

Despite her past fame as America’s favorite TV little sister, Olsen has largely stepped away from Hollywood. Instead of acting, she now dedicates her time to mentoring young performers, teaching comedy and filmmaking workshops in Santa Clarita. Although she makes some public appearances, she likes to keep a low profile.

However, Olsen has also been a controversial figure over the years. From political statements to past radio show rivalries, she has been at the center of some heated arguments. Despite these controversies, she remains a household name, and her recent parking lot incident demonstrates that even former child stars have typical moments of forgetfulness.
