There were a couple

There were a couple incidents while filming the opening car chase. In one of them, two stuntmen was hurt badly while staging the head-on crash between a car and a truck. Six days earlier, a driver was delivering an Aston Martin to the set when he lost control of the vehicle and drove into a lake.

I don't think there were any fatalities on-set.

Quantum was action-packed

Quantum was action-packed and very good. As a Bond fan, I liked the grit of the movie. It seemed to have less tuxedos and casino-hopping scenes, but more action. Bond was more renegade agent than ladies man. It was interesting to see how "M" tried to handle him.

I liked the locations in the movie, too. The car chase scenes reminded me that you posted an item about a bad accident during filming. Was someone killed? Do you know if that happened in the Siena Italy car chase?
