Accident Recovery on the M2

After a collision the priority is making the scene safe, containing fluids, clearing debris, and recovering the vehicle without causing further damage. Our PAS 43 accredited operators work alongside the emergency services, photograph the scene for your insurer, and can store the vehicle while a claim is processed.

The M2 runs 26 miles from Strood, Rochester to Faversham through Kent, with 7 junctions and service stations at Farthing Corner (Medway). Traffic is heavily influenced by cross-Channel ferry and Eurotunnel schedules, with significant peaks during school holidays and bank holiday weekends. Wherever your vehicle stops along that route, our nearest accident recovery driver is dispatched from Chatham to reach you fast.

Why vehicles need accident recovery on the M2

From our call-out data on the M2, the issues that most often leave drivers needing recovery on this route are:

Crosswind-related incidents on exposed sections near Detling Hill
Brake failure on the steep descent at Blue Bell Hill
Overheating on slow climbs during summer holiday traffic to the Channel ports

Accident Recovery at the M2's breakdown hotspots

These are the stretches of the M2 where we are called out most often, and where we keep accident recovery resources close at hand:

Blue Bell Hill descent between Junctions 2 and 3, the steep 7% gradient overheats brakes on HGVs descending westbound and strains engines on eastbound vehicles climbing; brake failure incidents are significantly higher here than on any other Kent motorway section

Junction 5 (Sittingbourne/A249 interchange), this junction handles traffic to and from the Isle of Sheppey; the merging traffic often causes sudden braking that leads to shunts and clutch wear in queuing vehicles

Detling Hill exposed section between Junctions 4 and 5, crosswinds across the open North Downs ridge make this dangerous for high-sided vehicles and caravans; breakdown call-outs spike during autumn and winter storms
