An ‘appalling’ driver led police on a high speed chase before trying to overtake cars through a small gap in traffic - and caused a huge crash. Daniel Matley, 27, was spotted in an Audi on false registration plates on the M60, leading them to believe it was stolen.
After engaging in a pursuit, Matley drove at speeds reaching 90 to 100 miles per hour, overtaking and undertaking other cars and going the wrong way round a roundabout.
The chase eventually came to an end when he tried to squeeze through a gap to overtake a car, and instead smashed into a number of parked and moving cars. Fortunately nobody was seriously injured, Minshull Street Crown Court heard.
