He was arrested after the incident on November 15th and has now pleaded guilty to causing death by dangerous driving. The collision happened at around 12.30am on the M6 northbound between junctions 20, Lymm, and 21, Thelwall.
The incident involved three vehicles, a black Peugeot 107, a Peugeot 307 and a white Volkswagen Scirocco driven by Yates. Sadly, the driver of the Peugeot 107, 41-year-old Christopher Smith from St Helens, died as a result of the injuries he sustained in the collision.
