A five-car pile-up caused a major London bridge to close.

Traffic over the Thames was brought to a complete halt after a chaotic crash involving five vehicles took place.

The second vehicle, believed to be a £29,000 BYD Sealion 5, was left perched on top of another car.

The multi-motor collision took place by Vauxhall Bridge – bringing traffic to a standstill.

Footage taken by shocked commuters shows the extent of the crash with five vehicles suffering significant damage.

According to reports, multiple fire engines attended the scene.

Vauxhall Bridge Road, London, has a speed limit of just 20mph.

The crash caused the junction of A202 Bessborough Gardens to close.

TFL reportedly advised Londoners at the time to use alternative routes until the road reopened.

Members of the public were left shocked by the crash.

One person said: “Can’t park there mate.”

One other viewer said: “I don’t want to imagine how fast they were driving to result in such a bad crash.

“I hope no one got hurt.”

Another person said: “How do they manage that?”

One other wrote: “They forgot to put the parking sign there.”
