Rowan Atkinson has smashed his Audi convertible car into a dustcart.

According to The Sun, the Mr Bean star emerged from the crash with bruising on his face and ribs, and has destroyed his vehicle.

A friend said: "It's a mangled wreck."

The driver of the cart did not receive any injuries.

Atkinson has had three additional car accidents in the last ten years - two in his Aston Martin V8 Zagato, worth £100,000, and one in his £650,000 McLaren F1.
