The 'EastEnders' actor was reportedly travelling with a female passenger on the M25 near Brentwood, Essex, when a collision occurred, and police attended the scene but fortunately nobody was harmed in the incident.
Speaking about the accident, which he described as a "bump", Dean - who is dating Rebekah Ward - told The Sun Online: "There has been a crash which is why I'm driving a hire car."
The 40-year-old star - who is known for playing Robbie Jackson in the BBC One soap - had a £33,000 Mercedes motor delivered to the show's set in March 2018 to mark the end of his driving ban.
In June 2017, Dean was handed a nine-month motoring ban and slapped with a £1,000 fine after refusing to say who was behind the wheel of his car when the vehicle was spotted doing 38mph in a 30mph zone in Liverpool in January 2016.
He had pleaded not guilty to the charge of failing to give police information.
In 2013, Dean was involved in a serious car accident, which resulted in him undergoing "major surgery" on his skull after he was rushed to hospital.
He crashed into the central reservation while driving along the A38.
A spokesperson for Derbyshire Police said: "We can confirm that a 34-year-old man was involved in a collision on the A38 at around 10.45pm last night.
"There was just one car involved that hit the central reservation. He was taken to Royal Derby Hospital where he received treatment for head injuries but those injuries aren't thought to be life-threatening."
