A driver who "miraculously" walked away from a serious crash was handed just a £500 fine and five points on his licence.
Kevin Porter was driving on Queens Drive shortly before midnight on Monday, December 7 when he crashed his Audi RS4 into a bus stop. The car, travelling southbound along the main road at the entry slip for the M62, was destroyed, with the 27-year-old and a female passenger coming away from the crash without any serious injuries.
The pair managed to get themselves out of the car before emergency services arrived, with them both being taken to hospital at the time to be checked over. Porter, of Ketteringham Drive, Great Sankey was convicted of careless driving and resulted in him being fined £500 and handed five points on his licence.
