Was anyone else caught up in this yesterday?

Forgetting about the delays, nobody was injured and it was actually quite funny to see people getting out of their cars and help collect clothes, cutlery etc off the carriageway.

I wonder if those in the tailback got a refund?
I did think they might just open up the tolls booths to help disperse the traffic quicker but no, they didn't.

£5.50 it cost for the pleasure of a standstill.

A lane changing incident... More than just the caravan and towing car involved.

I'm bored so playing half arsed accident investigation from the skidmarks. Caravan was changing between lane 1 and 2 whilst slowing for the toll, it's been hit by the white 3 series locking up its n/s/f wheel. Caravan has hit the n/s barrier and the tow car has spun into the o/s barrier.



o/s rear of the caravan is damaged as is the n/s front of the bmw which doesn't look to have a tow bar, where's the tow car? BMW driver is the one looking sheepish on his own by the drivers door, all the others were in the tow car going for some old peoples gang bang dogging session yes

You're right, the tow car was facing the other way wedged into the O/S crash barrier.

It can be seen in the uncut version of the picture you posted...

But guess which person in the picture owns the (ex)caravan?
