新西蘭英語 329 Police chases
On Thursday night, in Christchurch, two people were killed by a car which was being chased by a police car.
Around 8pm, the police saw a car travelling at about 90kmh in a 50kmh zone. They followed the car. Thirty seconds later, the driver drove through a red light and hit a Daihatsu. Both cars flew in the air then rolled over and over. The two elderly people in the Daihatsu were killed. The driver of the car which caused the crash was taken to hospital. He is 22 years old. His car had no Warrant of Fitness, it was not registered and the driver had no licence because he had been disqualified from driving.
Last month three young people in a car in Christchurch were chased by police for speeding. They hit a power pole and were killed. Two months ago another young driver in Christchurch hit a tree and was killed, as he was speeding away from the police.
In the last year, four motorcyclists and two other people in cars have died as a result of police chases.
