Police say a woman had a 10-month-old baby in her car during a dangerous pursuit from the Central Coast to Swansea.
Just after midday yesterday (Tuesday 30 September, 2025), officers attempted to stop a Volkswagen sedan on the M1 at Somersby and initiated a pursuit when the car failed to stop.
They terminated the chase at the Tuggerah interchange, with the car involved in a crash before continuing north.
Road spikes were deployed twice just north of the Swansea Bridge and again at Pelican, but the driver swerved to avoid them.
The car was later found dumped on Moorilla Close at Windale and police arrested five people, including the driver, near the vehicle.
The alleged driver, a 19-year-old woman is due to front court today (Wednesday 1 October, 2025) charged with several offences including exceeding speed limit for learner driver by more than 45km/hr and drive recklessly/furiously.
The four passengers have been released without charge.
