A motorist stopped by the North West Motorway Police on the M60 has been found to be more than three times over the legal drink drive limit.
The man driving a Peugeot provided a breath test reading of 111, with the legal limit being just 35. Officers say they were helped by Highways North West, who were concerned about the way the car was being driven along the M61 towards Manchester.
Police then caught sight of the driver on the M60 and stopped him. Following the breathalyser test, the man was arrested and his vehicle was seized.
