Drunk van driver on the M1
Shocking footage shows the moment a drink-driver crashed his van after swerving across a busy motorway - before he was found fast asleep behind the wheel.
Jamie Barrett, 30, was spotted driving dangerously as he headed north along the M1 in Nottinghamshire on September 14 this year.
A concerned witness contacted police to describe his erratic driving as if he was "shaking his steering wheel quickly from left to right."
He's been given a suspended six-month jail sentence
