Court papers obtained by the PA news agency reveal that the group had been drinking alcohol and inhaling nitrous oxide - also known as laughing gas - prior to the collision.

The details emerged in a behind-closed-doors hearing at Cardiff Magistrates' Court for Joel Lia, the sixth member of the group, who had been driving the Tiguan an hour before the crash.

Lia, 28, of Rumney, Cardiff, was charged with driving without a licence or insurance in Porthcawl.

Same. People like that rarely change IMO. There will probably be another tragedy he's involved in.

Outrageous, honestly. Doesn't seem to matter how many people you kill while driving, they always seem to get a pathetic sentence.

He was not the one driving when the three were killed. He was a passenger.

The driver was one of the three who died.

Driver who filmed himself at 90mph while inhaling from balloons just hours before surviving crash that killed three is jailed​

  • Video played in court showed Shane Andrew Loughlin inhaling from balloons

A man who showed a 'total disregard for the law' when he filmed himself driving at speeds of up to 90mph while inhaling from balloons hours before surviving a crash in which three people died has been jailed.

Shane Andrew Loughlin, 32, of Rumney, Cardiff, previously admitted driving a Volkswagen Tiguan dangerously on the M4, as well as driving the vehicle while disqualified.

The offences, relating to Loughlin driving at around 10pm on March 3, were not connected to a collision involving the same vehicle which happened near the St Mellons area of Cardiff at 2.03am on March 4.
