WEST DRAYTON: A lorry jackknifed on the M4, causing rush hour tailbacks.

The HGV was travelling westbound when it spun out of control and ended up facing oncoming traffic just past junction four, at 8.30am on Wednesday, January 7.

One lane was closed until around 8.50am, when the white Mercedes lorry was removed.

Drivers faced tailbacks stretching along Stockley Road.

A Metropolitan Police Service spokesman said no one was injured.
