Officers said the rear or the passenger windows were broken.

In a reply on Twitter the RPU said it does not know exactly what has caused the damage.

But one driver has raised fears the latest incidents could be 'someone taking pot shots' and he believes he experienced something similar in June.

Lee Hiatt replied, sharing his tweet from June 26, sent to the unit, suggesting patrols were sent to junction 2, adding: "Think someone is taking pot shots with a pellet gun.

"Another car and lorry pulled over behind me.
