Watch as driver with four flat tyres heads into oncoming traffic as he goes wrong way down motorway in police chase

THIS is the shocking moment a driver with four flat tyres hurtles the wrong way down a motorway during a terrifying police chase.

Harry Hosker, 27, was arrested after the pursuit which started at around 7.50pm on July 20 in Cheshire.

Officers were on patrol in Culcheth, Warrington, when they saw a black Volkswagen Golf with false number plates.

They pursued the vehicle as it pulled out of Holdcroft Lane and travelled on Warrington Road.

A stinger was then used to slow Hosker as his car entered the Birchwood area.

But despite all four tyres being flat, extraordinary footage shows how the driver refused to stop.

Carnage then erupts as a police vehicle tries to block the car before Hosker charges down a slip road and onto the M62 motorway.

He proceeds to bolt the wrong way down the motorway between junctions 11 and 10, as police pursue him along the other carriageway.

Hosker eventually stops in an emergency refuge bay near junction 10 before abandoning the car and charging into a field.

Dramatic bodycam footage shows an officer leaving his car on the motorway to give chase as he screams "stay there" across the carriageway.

The footage then cuts to the officer climbing over the fence into the field where he finds Hosker lying on his front, having given up trying to escape.

The officer tells him to put his hands behind his back before arresting him.

Hosker, of Glazebrook Lane, Rixton, was charged with dangerous driving, use of a false number plate, driving without insurance and driving without a licence.

The driver was also charged with possession of cannabis.

Hosker appeared at Chester Magistrates' Court on July 22 where he pleaded guilty to all charges.

He was sentenced to one year behind bars and disqualified from driving for 54 months.

PC Dave Carr, from the Cheshire Police Roads and Crime Unit, said: “During the pursuit Hosker showed no regard for the safety of our officers or the other innocent road users.

"Travelling at high speeds while having four flat tyres and even driving the wrong way down the motorway.

“However, despite his repeated attempts to evade officers, there really was nowhere to hide and he is now facing the consequences of his actions.”
