A man who mowed down and killed a 15-year-old boy has been jailed again for leading police on a 100mph chase in a stolen car.
When he killed Jack, Meek was found to have been travelling at up to 55mph on a 30mph road. He then fled the scene, ditching his friend's dad's car and getting a taxi home, where he went to bed. The stolen BMW overtook multiple vehicles, tailgating them to force them to pull over. Meek reached speeds of more than 100mph along winding narrow roads - more than double the 40mph speed limit.
Meek was confirmed as the driver after his DNA was recovered from the steering wheel airbag, which had been deployed in the crash. He was subsequently arrested and charged in relation to the incident. “It is a miracle that no other collisions occurred as a result of Meek’s driving on 19 July. He put innocent members of the public at risk, reaching alarming speeds in excess of 100mph and eventually losing control of the stolen vehicle.
