Rain causes motorway chaos

Rain caused commuter chaos in Auckland this morning.

There were two six-car pile ups northbound on the southern motorway - one just before the Karaka on-ramp and the second farther south.

A truck jack-knifed city-bound just before Cook Street. It blocked one lane and traffic was backed up over the Harbour Bridge.

Police reported several other nose-to-tails on the motorway as a result.
