A drug-drive dad who killed his young son in a motorway smash will 'have to live with the consequences of his actions for the rest of his life', prosecutors have said.
Leon Clarke, 40, was 13 times over the drug-driving limit when he got behind the wheel of his uninsured BMW to pick up his two sons Blake, eight, and Mason, six, from their grandparents' house in Middleton, near Rochdale, to drive to Marple, Stockport.
A court heard in heavy rain and standing water in February 2020, he lost control of the car on the M60 near Audenshaw and it aquaplaned and collided with a highways maintenance lorry parked on the hard shoulder.
