A car driver and two passengers were taken to hospital after being involved in a collision with two articulated lorries on the M6 near Walsall this morning.
A stretch of the southbound motorway, just after Junction 10, was shut for around an hour-and-a-half following the accident at 4.30am. Three ambulances, a rapid response vehicle and a medical team from Walsall Manor Hospital were sent to the scene amid fears the car driver and passengers were seriously injured.
Murray MacGregor, spokesman for West Midlands Ambulance Service, said: “All three were taken to Walsall Manor Hospital for further assessment and treatment.”
A spokeswoman for Central Motorway Police  said latest reports suggested the occupants of the car received minor injuries, despite the apparent seriousness of the accident.
