The ANSA news agency reports that the Uruguay international also had his Ferrari and driver's license taken away and was fined 531 euros ($600) by police after the accident. ANSA says Caceres was not injured after his Ferrari hit a bus shelter after veering to the wrong side of the road and colliding with some parked cars.
The 28-year-old Caceres is in his fourth season with Juventus. The defending Serie A champion hosts Sevilla in the Champions League on Wednesday.
