But, we have one eye-witness who was involved saying it wasn't smoke, but a thick patch of fog.
Conclusions on the cause ain't really helpful. That is down to the investigating authorities.
My brother works in the sainsburys that backs onto the motorway at J25, he has said that when he left work at 8, the fog was so thick he couldnt see the front of his car in places. He also commented that people were still driving at 70, and he wasnt surprised there was an accident, but was surprised on the size of the accident.

whats peoples thoughts on the following:
In france the speed limit is reduced considerably in poor weather,
In Greece the speed limit reduces by 30kmh from 300 yards before until 300 yards after motorway junctions!
Do people thinks either of these would improve safety in the UK?
