A drunk-driver who travelled down the wrong side of the M4 motorway for 30 miles claims he can't even remember getting in the car. James Brennan who was three times over the driving limit was nearly involved in multiple dangerous collisions with oncoming traffic had it not been for the quick reactions of other drivers.
Police attempted to stop the 55-year-old to prevent any crashes as officers blocked off junctions to stop vehicles joining the M4, Wales Online reports. Nine cop cars also shadowed the intoxicated driver in a silver Renault Megane as he sped uncontrollably down the motorway.
Brennan later told officers he could not remember anything between leaving the pub and waking up in a prison cell. A judge who sentenced the defendant to jail told him he was lucky to still be alive.
