A man is facing several charges after a police pursuit through the west.
The pursuit started when police tried to pull over a car with false number plates in Hoppers Crossing about 9pm on Wednesday.
The 23-year-old driver then led police on a chase, including on the wrong side of the Princes Freeway.
Police stopped the pursuit when it became too dangerous, but later found the car at a Point Coook house and arrested the driver, who had a disqualified probationary permit.

He is due to appear in court on Thursday.
