A car burst into flames on the motorway this morning, forcing the closure of two lanes of traffic.
The fire, which happened on the M25 clockwise between junction 27 at Epping and junction 28 at Brentwood, was put by fire crews from Loughton and Epping.
The accident has now been cleared, but delays are continuing to affect traffic back to junction 27.
