A man has been charged in connection with a five-vehicle crash in which a mother and daughter died.
Cheryl Woods, 61, and Sarha Smith, 40, from Caerphilly, died in the crash on the M4 between the junctions for Chippenham and Bath in October last year.
Firas Zeineddine, 45, of Keynsham, has been charged with two counts of causing death by dangerous driving.
In a tribute after their deaths on 20 October 2023, their family said Cheryl Woods was a “loving mother, doting grandmother, cherished sister, and a dear friend”.
They said her “selflessness was a defining trait” and that she was “cherished by those in her life”.
Her family added that Ms Woods “took immense pride in her Welsh heritage” and nurtured “a deep love for nature”.

Sarha Smith “unselfishly devoted herself to her family’s needs”, the tribute added.
The mother-of-six’s “absence leaves a void for those who relied on her radiant presence”.
Ms Smith’s family said her daughters would “forever hold her memory close and strive to honour her with their efforts”.
Zeineddine is due to appear in court at a later date.
