A Far North man picked a bad day to try to outrun police - a large group of police officers were just down the road carrying out a drink-drive blitz.
Yesterday's drama started about 11.30am when the driver of a Nissan Primera refused to stop for police on Puketona Rd, instead speeding off towards State Highway 10.
Check out the clip of a police dog getting a scent of the driver:
He then headed south on SH10 and turned off onto unsealed Porotu Rd at Oromahoe.
