A DAD told an inquiry he still suffers nightmares about his son and his son's girlfriend lying undiscovered at the side of a motorway for days.
Gordon Yuill was giving evidence yesterday after it emerged police failed to log a farmer's call that their car had crashed into a field.
The 59-year-old said he'd reported his son John missing after he and his girlfriend, Lamara Bell, 25, failed to return from a camping trip.
Gordon, 59, said he normally saw his son every day. He described John, a dad of five, as a "lovely person, a hardworking, normal family guy".
The inquiry heard John, 28, and Lamara, a mum of two, had been camping with three others on the south shore of Loch Earn when John and Lamara had "a dispute" and left while the others slept.
After calling at services near Perth early on Sunday, July 5, 2015, John's Renault Clio plunged down an embankment on the M9 near Stirling.
