Allison was twice convicted in 2013 and 2014 for failing to stop and once on a charge of failing to remain stopped. In May 2014, he was forbidden to drive.
On October 12, an officer in a police patrol car spotted Allison driving his Holden along State Highway 14 on Maunu Rd and attempted to stop him.
Allison accelerated towards Dargaville and at one stage reached speeds of
180km/h as he passed through Maungatapere, which has a speed limit of 70km/h.
He threw a large metal torch and a crowbar out the window. They narrowly missed the pursuing patrol car.
While approaching Tangiteroria, he crossed the opposite lane at a blind corner, forcing a vehicle towing a heavy domestic trailer to take evasive action.
Allison then slammed on the brakes and reversed at speed towards the stationary police vehicle. The officer narrowly avoided being hit.
Allison then turned into a loose gravel road and drove mostly on the wrong side.
At one point, he cut a corner and almost had a head-on collision with a car driven by a woman taking her two children to school.
Allison drove on to Houto Rd, where police discovered his car hidden near a quarry.
About three hours later he was tracked by a police dog to a property where he was hiding in bushes.
While in the back of a patrol car, he was heard yelling to the occupant of a house: "I know where you live. I am going to come back and f***ing kill you. You narks."
Allison spat into an officer's face and vest after being told to shut up.
He told police he fled because he knew there were warrants for his arrest and he would go to jail.
Judge Hunt remitted Allison's unpaid fines of $3282.
