A banned driver whose best friend died when the car they were both travelling in flipped over in a three-vehicle smash in Bradford has been jailed.
Bradford Crown Court heard Zahoor, then 19, had been locked up for a previous offence of dangerous driving just five months before the fatal crash. The court heard that just before the crash, Iqbal, who was driving a BMW, had been "tailgating" the Audi driven by Zahoor and the manner of Iqbal's driving had been "egging on Zahoor to drive faster".
The court was told Zahoor had since named his son after Mr Haris, whose family had decided to forgive him for what he had done because it was what their son would have wanted.
