Drunk driver who killed a father and son was pleasuring himself

ROSS PARRY SYNDICATION: A drunk driver who killed a Leeds father and son was pleasuring himself at the wheel moments before the fatal crash, a court has heard.

Imran Hussain's powerful Audi Q7 was like a "speeding bullet" moments before it ploughed into the back of a Fiat Punto carrying Gary Proctor, 47, his wife Catherine, 44, and their 16-year-old son James.

Mr Proctor and James died in the collision on the M62 motorway near Rochdale, Greater Manchester, on August 3.

Hussain, 32, Bradford, West Yorks., pleaded guilty to two counts of causing death by dangerous driving and one count of driving with excess alcohol.

Manchester Crown Court heard that Hussain's penis was partially exposed when motorists came to his aid after the crash.

Judge Andrew Blake told him: "At the least it must have been a symptom you were not giving your full attention to driving."

He sentenced him to eight years for each of the two counts of causing death by dangerous driving, to be served concurrently, and banned him from driving for 15 years.
