THIS is the moment the “worst driver ever seen” sent two cars flying amid a country road police chase.

It resulted in a horror crash that flipped a van after the chase reached speeds of over 100mph along 30pmh country roads.

The Volkswagen Arteon was pursued by police after it was caught driving at 56mph in a 30mph zone along Wiltshire country roads.

It was then seen overtaking two vehicles on solid white lines.

Despite police starting their sirens and illuminating their lights, the driver sped up, reaching more than 100mph and starting the police chase.

He performed a number of dangerous stunts, not only driving way above the speed limit, but also weaving in and out of cars, and skipping a red light towards the A338.

He was also seen mounting a kerb to overtake a vehicle, before speeding away on the wrong side of the road.

The footage then shows the driver go the wrong way on a roundabout in his attempt to evade police.

He overtakes a vehicle on the brow of a hill and narrowly avoid a collision with an oncoming army truck.

The pursuit is then carried out in the direction of Marlborough and then onto Ludgershall Road, where the Volkswagen veers onto a dirt road on Salisbury Plain.

They reach a long stretch of straight road, and whilst trying to overtake two more vehicles, the driver crashes into the rear of a white Citroen van.

The van is caused to fly into hedges on the side of the road, before the Volkswagen collides in to an unmarked police vehicle that was ahead of the pursuit.

A stinger device was reportedly deployed by officers as the driver made his way back towards his home.

This caused puncturing of the two nearside tyres of the vehicle being driven.

Following the collision, armed officers can be seen running up to the driver’s seat, shouting, “Get out the car now!

“Show me your hands now!”

The driver is then retained by police on the road.

Marlon Henriques, 30, fled officers after he failed to stop when they caught him driving almost two times faster than the speed limit in Wiltshire.

The car Volkeswagon he was driving had been taken from a housemate, and a police pursuit was authorised when he was spotted overtaking two vehicles.

The 30-year-old has now been sentenced to nearly two years in jail for dangerous driving, as it put “numerous lives in danger”.

Salisbury Crown Court heard Henriques failed to stop for police in Bulford on June 10.

Henriques has now admitted to aggravated taking of a vehicle without consent, dangerous driving, driving whilst disqualified and driving without insurance, jailed to 22 months.

He has been disqualified from driving for four years and 11 months.

Following sentencing, Wiltshire Police Roads Policing officer PC Webster said: “Henriques’ driving is some of the worst I have seen.

“He put numerous lives in danger through his speeding and reckless overtaking, regularly driving through red lights and the wrong way around roundabouts.

“Stopping him involved excellent collaborative work between the Roads Policing Unit, neighbourhood and response officers, and I’m pleased he has now been sentenced.

“This incident took place during the middle of the day, and I want to thank all members of the public for their assistance and patience when dealing with this matter.”
