M6 motorists share their misery on Twitter
Been stuck on the M6 between J13 and J15 for 3hrs. It's so bad Ali and I have resorted to playing I Spy. The kids aren't even in the car.
From @robp1980 on Twitter:Long delays on the m6, going to be here a very long time #OhJoy
From @KieranJohnsonn on Twitter:I advise NOONE to use the m6 today! 3 hours stuck in traffic to go 3 miles, not how I wanna spend my day
From @Beckeee_xO on Twitter:There are tailbacks of up to ten miles and major delays after a lorry caught fire when it collided with a car towing a caravan on the M6 in Staffordshire last night.
The driver of the car is being treated in hospital for serious head injuries after the crash between Stafford services and Junction 15 shortly after 4 o'clock this morning.
The Highways Agency have warned motorists to expect further two hour delays as the road is re-surfaced.
