A Hamilton South man is due to face court next month after allegedly being caught high range drink driving twice last night.
Just before 10.00pm, officers responded to a complaint about the man in Caldwell Street, Merewether and were stopped by the side of the road when they pulled him over.
One of the officers was forced to roll over the bonnet of his patrol car to avoid being collected by the car as it came to a stop.
It's alleged the 57-year-old returned a high-range blood alcohol reading and his licence was suspended on the spot.
Police say just over an hour-and-a-half later the same man was stopped in a different car on Harle Street and again returned a high range reading.
He's been granted conditional bail to front Newcastle Local Court on September 9 charged with driving while suspended and high-range drink driving.
