On patrol this morning, Tipperary Roads Policing Unit; using their number plate recognition application system, identified an uninsured motor vehicle.
When Gardai attempted to halt the vehicle the driver drove off before eventually loosing control of the car, colliding with a fence and narrowly missing a private residence.
The learner driver who had no insurance and was unaccompanied, also failed a DrugWipe test; testing positive, on the roadside, for cocaine.
The motor vehicle which had a dangerous bald tyre and no valid NCT, has now been seized and the driver has been arrested.
