Do you say "get caught in a traffic accident"?

[optimistic pessimist]

Dear all,

1. I got involved in a traffic accident.
2. I got caught in a traffic accident.

I know #1 is fine, but do you also say #2?

Thanks

I'd say 'I got held up in a traffic accident' (it was somebody else's accident which delayed me).

You could say 'I got caught up in . . . .'
