A car was found on its roof after a crash on the M42 this weekend.

Police said the "selfish" driver was three times over the legal limit.

After the incident on Friday (April 18), a police statement said: "This evening we attended the M42 to find this vehicle on its roof, thankfully nobody was seriously hurt but the driver was more than three times the drink drive limit!

"This selfish act could have easily ended with a fatality and I have no doubt the courts will hand out a suitable punishment."
