Just caught sight of it as I passed over the top, on the M25. No emergency services around. Hope the driver's OK. That is one seriously tight turn.

Theres warning signs all the way down there and its fairly obvious to anyone with an ounce of sense that its not a junction to fly around with any weight on, you even have to slow down a considerable amount when empty. Has he done it heading north on that final turn to the left? Thats the usual, I've even seen one that was going so fast he made it on his side into lane 1 of the M11. I'll have a look around to see if we dragged it back in the morning.

I believe it's been there most of the day and won;t be moved until the evening. Radio said it was loaded with charcoal, of all things!

I hear what you're saying. I normally come through that way with 2 liter plastic bottles of soft drinks, thay try to buckle at the best of times.

Was he on the southbound loop?

I saw the truck from the M25 - as far as I could see, he was heading from M11 South onto M25 anti-clock.

That's it. From what I saw briefly was large scratch marks in the road that corresponded with it scraping along on it's side for a distance. It came to rest on the large verge conveniently and out of the way, hence I would image, why they just left it until tonight.
