-
Sarwar Rasool Mustafa, 27, was spotted by officers patrolling the A35 in Dorset at around 9.45am on June 22 last year.
They suspected his grey BMW 1 series was displaying cloned registration plates and believed Mustafa to be driving without insurance.
Officers attempted to stop the vehicle by activating blue lights and sirens near to Bere Regis, Dorset, but the BMW failed to stop and drove onto the A31.
