Drugged Driver's Fatal Wrong-Way Crash

0:00On April 18th, a 28-year-old driver from Folkstone named Aiden Walsh died in a head-on crash after driving the wrong way down the M20. Motorway for five miles. He taken cocaine and cannabis beforehand, then did a free-point turn on the London-bound side near Junctions 8-9 heading straight into. Oncoming traffic around 11.30pm on November 12th, he weaved through cars for seven minutes before slamming into a Mercedes Sprinter van. Both drivers swerved the same way to dodge each other, making the collision unavoidable. Walsh ended up with fatal injuries and passed the next day in hospital, while the van driver only got minor cuts. Walsh was a laborer with the history of addiction, working for a fencing company in Asherd. He'd visited a friend in Orpengton that night, where he smoked cannabis, and test showed cocaine levels seven times over the legal driving limit in. His blood. The corner ruled at a road traffic collision with no clue on why he turned around. No suicide note, no intent to crash on purpose since he dodged.

1:03Traffic for so long. Police called it a sad, unusual case, and the only one who knew his reasons is gone. In the end, it's just a heartbreaking accident that tore families on both sides, reminding us how drugs behind the wheel turn split-second choices into forever tragedies.
