FLAMES engulfed a van on the M40 near Milton Common on Saturday.
Nothing was left of the vehicle but a charred shell after it caught fire at about 2.30pm.
The northbound lane was closed on the exit slip road at junction 8 with the A40 heading towards Wheatley services, as the emergency services dealt with the blaze.
The police confirmed that no one was hurt in the fire and South Central Ambulance said they were not called to the scene.
Thames Valley Roads Policing said although one lane was closed, the fire was put out quickly and traffic was able to pass by the fire.
