-

A lorry driver had a miraculous escape after a motorway crash left his cab crushed.

The trucker suffered only cuts and bruises when his HGV smashed into the back of another lorry on the M2 on Tuesday afternoon.

A trail of mangled wreckage was left behind, but astonishin­gly, no one was seriously hurt.

Kent Police’s roads unit tweeted the picture, adding: “Thank you for everyone’s patience, amazingly driver only had a couple of small cuts.”

The London-bound carriagewa­y was closed between junction 4 for Gillingham and 3 for Chatham until 2.40am, when one lane reopened.

The road was completely reopened at around 5pm.
