He was cut free by the Surrey Fire and Rescue Service, and the traffic flow had to be stopped in both directions to allow the Kent, Surrey and Sussex Air Ambulance to land.
The injuries to the driver were less serious than first thought, and he was taken by ambulance to hospital.
The clockwise M25 and one lane anticlockwise were opened as soon as the air ambulance had left, however two lanes anti-clockwise remained closed for a time to allow Highways England to remove the damaged vehicles and clear up an oil spillage.
