A DRIVER killed in a motorway crash had 'not slept or rested in any meaningful way' for 24 hours, an inquest heard.

But the reason why Peter Howorth lost control of his Audi A5 in the fatal accident near Bolton 'remained unclear, a coroner said.

The 32-year-old courier, of Bolton, died after his car careered up the banking, flipped onto its roof and crashed into a bridge on the A666 at 5.24am on May 27 last year. He was treated at the scene by paramedics before being rushed to hospital, where he later died.
