A man is due to face court over a high speed pursuit from the Mid North Coast to Port Stephens.
Highway Patrol officers attempted to stop a Porsche Cayman on the Pacific Highway at Coolongolook yesterday afternoon following reports about its manner of driving.
However police say the driver failed to stop and continued southbound on the highway at speeds in excess of 200km/h.
The car reached Heatherbrae and entered a car park and did laps before heading onto Banks Street and crashing into a fence.
The driver, a 20-year-old man, wasn't injured and was arrested at the scene.
Police say the car was reported stolen from Brisbane on Sunday.
The man's been charged with 11 offences including larceny and drive recklessly/furiously or speed/manner dangerous.
He's been refused bail to front Raymond Terrace Court today (Thursday 23 June 2022).
