Motorists faced long queues on the M5 between Burnham-On-Sea and Bridgwater on Tuesday evening (July 24th) after a minibus fire.
Two fire appliances from Bridgwater and Burnham-On-Sea were called to the scene at 4.56pm.
“Crews fought the fire wearing breathing apparatus and used compressed foam to extinguish the blaze,” a spokesman told Burnham-On-Sea.com.
“Crews continued to damp down vehicle and the cause of the fire was accidental.”
A passenger in a passing car took this mobile phone image of the burnt-out vehicle while passing the scene.
