A lorry that caught fire on the M25 will cause travel chaos until midday, motorists have been warned. Images show the vehicle engulfed in flames in the middle of an empty motorway. Fire crews can later be seen surrounding the scorched wreckage after the fire has been extinguished.

Traffic on the M26 westbound between J2A near Wrotham Heath and M25/A21 has also been diverted. Read more: #lorry #m25 #explosion
