Commuter traffic is heavy across Auckland's motorways tonight thanks to multiple crashes, breakdowns and a scrub fire.
Rubberneckers are slowing traffic on the Auckland's Northern motorway after a car went off the road, police say.
Police were first called at 4.46pm after a vehicle spun out and left the road,
ending up in bushes on the grass verge after Oteha Valley Rd.
While the crash has been dealt with and police have left the scene, the NZTA said traffic is still heavy back to Greville Rd thanks to rubbernecking.
A scrub fire on a grass verge next to the Southern Motorway has also slowed traffic. The fire has been extinguished.
