A 20-year-old man from Brighton has been arrested on suspicion of drink-driving after a crash that closed the northbound carriageway of the M23 for an hour.
His Ford Scorpio was in collision with a Ford Transit van near to junction 10a at about 5.50am on Tuesday morning.
It caused the van to overturn and its 46-year-old driver was taken to the New East Surrey Hospital with minor injuries.
At 6.50am, firefighters were called to another accident on the northbound carriageway of the A23, near Handcross, following a crash involving one car.
A man had to be cut out of the vehicle and he was taken to hospital by ambulance.
