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.

Weather conditions at the time of the incident were heavy rain with patchy fog and at one point Brennan was heading straight towards two HGVS that were driving side-by-side down a two lane stretch of motorway. A 'stinger' device was deployed by officers as he raced through Port Talbot which successfully deflated the Megane's tyres.
