Scary!

Coming back up the M6 today from Keele - traffic was moving very slowly. Suddenly we saw a sign which said "Take Care - Smoke on Road" and just a short distance further on we saw this... the lorry was completely on fire with about 6 fire engines in attendance, police cars - didn't see an ambulance and hopefully no casualties but scary anyway - I could feel the heat through my window and I was in the slow lane on the other side.  Traffic was stacked up for miles and we even saw cars being turned around to face the wrong way so they could be guided off the motorway via a junction higher up.  We were lucky to get back without any major delays - so sorry for the hundreds of people involved on the other side.
