Driver of crashed Aston Martin DBS fined by Italian police

The man behind the wheel of James Bond’s Aston Martin has been fined £400 for dangerous driving after he drove the car into a lake during filming - reports the Daily Times.

British engineer Fraser Dunn, 29, was left shaken and more than a little stirred after the £134,000 Aston Martin DBS slid off the road and plunged into Lake Garda in northern Italy, where filming is taking place on the new Bond movie Quantum of Solace.

Now local police have said he has been given a mandatory fine for dangerous driving. Local police chief Marco Zucchelli said: “This is a standard fine for dangerous driving because the driver lost control of the car.” Dunn, who is from Leamington Spa, was left with just minor injuries after the accident.
