Acting Sergeant Tim Coudret, of North Dunedin, said one vehicle hit the rear end of another, about 5.30pm, causing both to skid and one of the cars flipped as a result.
The drivers of both vehicles were taken to Dunedin Hospital. The extent of any injuries was not known.
The incident caused traffic to back up on the motorway for a time.
The road has since been cleared.
