Lorry drops onto M6 Toll from M42 flyover

A lorry driver has had what has been described as an "amazing escape" after his lorry crashed off a flyover and dropped onto a busy motorway below.

The unidentified trucker, thought to be a man in his fifties, left the flyover, near Coleshill in Warwickshire and landed on the northbound carriageway of the M6 Toll at around 18:30 on Monday.
