A WOMAN had to be cut from her car earlier this morning after crashing on the M11 near Epping.
The smash happened on the southbound carriageway between junctions six and seven just after 7am.
Four fire crews rushed to the scene and used two sets of hydraulic cutting equipment to get her out of the wreckage.
The crash caused major traffic jams on the road, which was closed for over an hour.
The M11 has since reopened but queues remain, with jams reaching back to junctions seven and eight.
