Road users faced a slower journey after a two-car collision backed up traffic on Dunedin's Southern Motorway.
A police spokeswoman said officers were called to the motorway just after 5pm today.
Two cars had collided heading south, and the right-hand lane was blocked.
No serious injuries were reported, she said.
A passenger travelling home about 5.30pm told the ODT road users were having to deal with bad sunstrike and were driving slowly.
