A pair of courageous police officers who skilfully stopped a wrong-way driver on the M4 on Christmas Day have been rewarded for their bravery. Shortly after joining the M4, they spotted the vehicle heading towards them at about 70mph. The two vehicles collided, causing the offending vehicle to travel approximately 50m before coming to a stop in lane one, facing the wrong way. PC Bushell pulled the driver from the offending vehicle while his colleague closed lanes one and two before several other units attended to assist. The offending driver passed a roadside breath test and provided a negative drug wipe.
