M3 Chaos after a Car Fire, Broken Down Transporter and Now an Ambulance Crash
The M3 Southbound has been closed following a car fire this afternoon. Police and Fire crews rushed to the scene and smoke could be seen from a near by houseing estate as the car burst into flames.

Further delays have been caused within that section on motorway following a car transporter breaking down this is currently blocking a lane on the southbound carriage and a separate incident is adding to the delays on the southbound neat Junction 5 Hook involving a car that has been in collision with an ambulance.
