Login another user in Laravel but disable back button?

I’ve got a route and a bit of code to login as another user, but when you click the link, you are logged in as the new user, but if I press back in the browser it goes back to a restricted link and errors as the user doesn’t have access. How can I log in the user and basically disable the back button? Previously I have use javascript to open a new tab and close the old one, this works, but sometimes there is a weird timing issue where the original tab doesn’t close.

    In the link handler, probably in controller you check, if the current user is logged in as another user, you get request back by:

    return redirect()->back()

    Else (meaning nobody is logged in and need to show an error) – show an error

    Read authentication, authorization and middleware from laravel documentation.
