A drug driver who ploughed into the central reservation of the M1 before continuing with a missing wheel has been jailed.
Yes, Reader, you guessed it…
Omar Makhluf, 20, drove for several miles before finally pulling over at a service station near Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire.The crash happened on the motorway’s northbound stretch after Toddington, Bedfordshire at around 3.30pm on February 16 last year. Despite damage to his car, Makhluf, of Keel Close, Barking in east London drove on three wheels and was then filmed getting out of the vehicle at junction 14 for Newport Pagnell.
Bang to rights!
When told the grounds for his arrest at the service station, he replied: “I didn’t do dangerous driving.”In police interview, Makhluf struggled to stay awake and yawned while officers questioned him.
That won’t have endeared him to the investigators.
He was sentenced to 22 months and disqualified for four years for this offence and other matters elsewhere in the country.
I wonder what the ‘Other matters’ were, and why the reporter doesn’t see fit to inform us?
