Security cameras have captured the dramatic moment a car fleeing police lost control as it hurtled down a Palmerston North street.
CCTV footage supplied to the Herald showed a maroon Toyota Rav4 speeding down Tremaine Ave before losing control, and performing a full 360 degree spin on the wet tarmac.
Miraculously the car avoided contact with a parked SUV before coming to a gentle stop in the middle of a busy intersection, relatively unscathed.
The two occupants then fled from the vehicle, before a police car entered the frame.
