A man has been taken to hospital after his car overturned on the M2.

The accident happened on the London-bound carriageway just before 7.30am between junctions 4 (Gillingham) and 3 (Chatham).

Witnesses said the car ended up 10ft up a bank facing against the flow of traffic a mile from junction 3.

Traffic was delayed for 10 minutes.

The driver was seen being loaded onto a stretcher with strapping to protect neck and back injuries at about 8am.

No-one else is thought to have been hurt.

A police spokesman said: "One man with non-life-threatening injuries was taken to hospital.

"It is thought a lorry was involved in the accident."
