A driver has been arrested in Greater Manchester after trying to perform a reckless manoeuvre on a motorway. Officers stopped a black Honda Civic on the M60 in the early hours of this morning (April 8).
It followed a dangerous attempt by the driver, a man in his 40s, to perform a U-turn on an exit slip road at junction five, near Princess Parkway. Had he been successful, he would have driven straight back onto the anti-clockwise carriageway, driving onto oncoming traffic.
Luckily, officers managed to bring the incident to a halt. The driver was pulled over by police and given a roadside breathalyser test for drink-driving.
