ALL LANES have now re-opened after a care fire on the M40 at Watlington earlier this morning.
Fire crews were at the scene of junction 7 and junction 6 southbound from 7am this morning and only one lane was open.
Drivers were urged to take care due to thick smoke.
The car was ablaze on the hard shoulder but has now been extinguished by firefighters.
