Dangerous drivers who led police on huge chases and put lives at risk


Play all audios:


These ten danger drivers flouted the law by hitting huge speeds and leading the police on chases around the roads of the North East. From Crook to Cramlington and Sunderland to South


Shields, these criminals have caused huge risk to the general public - and in some cases caused devasting injuries. As a result, each of them has either felt the full force of the law or is


due to do so. The full details of each case are shocking - and where those responsible have been sentenced, the judges have taken a dim view of their offending. Speed limits have been


ignored, while some of these men have not respected the law when it comes to drink-driving or taking drugs before getting behind the wheel. Their crimes have taken place in the past 18


months - and highlight how the region's road policing teams are always busy. These are ten drivers who weren't able to escape the long-arm of the law. OUR CHRONICLELIVE DAILY
