A vehicle crashed into a stationary fire engine on a motorway in Kent as fire crews were attending an earlier crash.
Kent Fire and Rescue Service was earlier called to a crash on the M20 coastbound between junctions one (Swanley) and two (Wrotham).
Two fire engines were sent to the scene and crews helped one person from a car, who was passed into the care of paramedics.
The fire service said: "While responding to the incident, another vehicle collided with a stationary fire engine."
Two firefighters were given precautionary checks at the scene by paramedics but did not need hospital treatment.
The driver of the vehicle in the second collision also did not require hospital treatment, South East Coast Ambulance Service said.
Kent Police said a section of the carriageway was closed while emergency services dealt with the original incident, and one lane had reopened while diesel was cleared from the road.
