A dog was seen running on the motorway this afternoon causing delays.
Drivers reported seeing a dog running on the M65 carriageway between J13 and the end of the motorway at Colne today, May 1.
One driver said on social media that people were stopping to try and grab the dog but it kept running away and ending up in the traffic.
This was causing traffic on the motorway to slow down.
Police confirmed they were called shortly before 3.45pm to reports of a dog on the carriageway.
Officers attended but were unable to find a dog in the area.
