A 100-vehicle pile-up on the New Sheppey Crossing Bridge has left hundreds of people injured in a crash witnesses described as "mayhem".
Chief Inspector Andy Reeves, from Kent Police, said it was "truly miraculous" that no one died in the crash at around 7.15am, .
"From my perspective, it's truly miraculous. It's very fortunate," he said.
A Kent Police spokeswoman said visibility was a problem at the time, and witnesses say there was "very, very thick" early morning fog hovering over the bridge.
There are reports of some motorists driving "like idiots" in the conditions before the crash that closed the A249.
