A van caught on fire on a dual carriageway near a busy Swansea roundabout.
The fire caused slow traffic on the A4067 at M4 J45, Ynysforgan, at around 2.15pm today.
South Wales Police said at the time they were aware of the incident, but had not attended.
Cars were having to stop or slow down due to the large amount of smoke the van was generating.
No-one is thought to have been injured.
