A STOLEN Subaru WRX sedan was thrown into reverse on the Frankston freeway when the driver tried to evade police, Friday 5 February.

Frankston Highway Patrol had tried to intercept the car, stolen from Elsternwick on 24 January, near the Seaford Rd off-ramp.

But, instead of pulling over, the 21-year-old driver and his 17-year-old passenger, both of Seaford, slammed on the brakes, causing other cars to swerve out of the way, reversed and drove the wrong way down the off-ramp. The car’s muffler dropped off in the pursuit.

Detective Acting Sergeant Ryan Collins said the pair “did a runner” but were found hiding behind nearby houses and arrested. The girl was bailed to appear at Frankston Children’s Court, 8 March, on car theft charges.

The man, of Kerry Ct, Seaford, was bailed to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court, 5 May, on car theft charges, failing to stop, conduct endangering serious injury and being a learner driver without a licensed driver beside him.
