Police in West Lothian have confirmed a 23-year-old man will be reported for careless driving after a five-car collision caused huge delays in the M8 on Saturday afternoon, July 16.
The busy motorway was closed twice in quick succession after police dealt with an 'incident' in the early afternoon, with traffic completely ground to a halt, as motorists were pictured getting out of their vehicles to see what was going on.
Two hours later, when the road reopened between Junction 3A and 4, up the road, at Junction 4 and 4A, a five-car collision prompted a quick response from emergency services and a section of the road was closed in both directions.
