Driver led police on 120mph chase after refusing roadside breath test

A driver sped off when asked to take a roadside breath test and led police on a high-speed chase along the M4 motorway and up the Swansea Valley, a court has heard

Callum Davies reached speeds touching 120mph as he fled from the breathalyser, and police eventually decided to call off the the pursuit as late night temperatures plunged below zero and it became too risky to continue. A judge told Davies his driving had been "a fatal accident waiting to happen".

Swansea Crown Court heard the defendant - who works at the Hinkley Point nuclear power plant building site - has a "significant issue with cocaine", but he is adamant he had not taken any substances on the night in question.
