They were involved in a smash on the northbound stretch between junction 29A for Markham Vale and 30 for Barlborough.

The motorway was closed earlier but one lane has since re-opened to allow traffic to pass.

Derbyshire Police said 'long delays' are to be expected throughout the morning while vehicle recovery work is carried out.
