"Officers and London Ambulance Service attended. There are no reports of any injuries. Enquiries into the circumstances are ongoing," it added.
The accident took place on the anti-clockwise carriageway at junction 25, near Enfield.
Highways England said that there was a "multi-vehicle incident with a car on its side" on the same stretch of the M25.
