A man has been arrested after failing to stop for police while allegedly driving erratically through the streets of Wyndham.
Highway patrol officers observed a blue Ford Falcon driving erratically on Point Cook Road in Seabrook about 6.20pm on March 13.
The vehicle allegedly reached speeds of 100km/h in a 60km/h zone.
The driver failed to stop and police followed the car throughout Laverton, later terminating the pursuit due to safety concerns.
