Officers shut the northbound carriageway following the incident and motorists were advised to avoid the area for some time. Further delays were then caused by a "broken down vehicle".

An East of England Ambulance Service spokesperson has since confirmed two people were taken to Watford General Hospital for further assessment and treatment.

The A41 has now reopened and the force thanked motorists for their patience.
