More than 25 miles of the M5 near Bristol were closed for several hours after a vehicle struck an electricity pole next to the road.

It is thought the Nissan pick-up rolled several times before hitting the pole, but none of the three people in the vehicle are believed seriously injured.

Jon Kay reports.
