Quantum of Solace, more like Quantum of ACCIDENTS

So I'm pretty excited that the new James Bond is in full production at this time... however its a bit disheartening to hear that over the past week they've had three fairly serious accidents.
The movie is currently filming at Lake Garda in Northern Italy and has been hit with slew of vehicle chase related accidents... including, but not limited to the destruction of a £134,000 Aston Martin DBS (That's $265,000 US)(Also Image Below).
Another recent accident included an insecure safety net which resulted in a vehicle plunging into the lake off the road.
Luckily in both cases, very minor injuries seemed to occur given the accidents. However the most recent has a stunt man in serious condition after his henchmen vehicle collided with another (as seen in the first image I posted). Production has been rightfully halted while they consider either scrapping the sequence the accidents have been occurring in (which would suck) or decide to press on, since they technically only have a single day of filming left on the scene... After this most recent accident though, kinda hard to blame them.
(Don't worry, that's just a dummy in the mangled wreckage)

| |  Seems like an awesome location for a car chase sequence. With this many accidents occurring, it must be pretty intense what they're trying to pull off. |
