At least four people dead after crash on M5
 
At least four people have been killed in a horror crash involving a lorry, closing the M5 in both directions.

The lorry is understood to have smashed through the central reservation from the Southbound carriageway, near Almondsbury in south Gloucestershire.

Motorists look set to be stuck for hours with emergency services currently on the scene with queues already back six miles, according to some reports.

This is my nearest motorway junction about 15 minutes drive away, know a lot of people who were stuck for hours on what would normally be 30 min journeys.. of course they're the lucky ones. Wonder whether the lorry driver fell asleep or what, why should he be near the central reservation?

Fell asleep or had done sort of medical episode I guess

The lorry driver who killed 8 people in a mini bus a few week ago was parked up on the "slow lane"
