THE drivers of these two vehicles had an amazing escape when a Nissan car ploughed into a BMW and burst into flames on the M62 this morning.
Both were left uninjured after the smash at the M66 turn-off at junction 18.
All three lanes on the eastbound carriageway were closed to rush hour drivers for an hour following the crash at around 7.40am as emergency crews cleared the road and tried to piece together the events leading up to the crash.
