A lorry was left hanging off a bridge after crashing into a barrier on the M1 in Leicestershire.

Police were called to reports the vehicle had crashed on the southbound carriageway at junction 19 Catthorpe Interchange just after 04:30 BST.

Officers say the southbound carriageway is closed at junction 19 as well as both sides of the A14 while the vehicle is removed and the road made safe.

The driver safely left his vehicle and was not injured, police added.

National Highways confirmed the roads are likely to be closed for much of Monday as repair works take place.

:shocked:

That must have been terrifying

jeez I wonder if he nodded off or was on his phone

I bet he will not say.

He will have been watching porn on his ipad and took his free hand off the wheel to open up another can of Stella

Its easily done

I saw the aftermath of crazy lorry crash on the M6 a few years back - massive B&M bargains truck upturned in a field, a good 50m off the actual road so it must have come off at a good speed. Stuff was strewn everywhere, could have grabbed some bargains. Then again, B&M ... probably not worth the hassle of stopping ...
