Adam Woolward ignored the request of police officers to pull over on the A31 in East Dorset. He “squeezed” the Volkswagen Touran he was driving between the marked police car and a van before travelling at around 75mph in a 50mph zone. At Ashley Heath roundabout he failed to give way, nearly crashing as a result, before speeding at 80mph along a 40mph stretch of Horton Road. Woolward, 28, pulled into a small gravel car park at Ringwood Forest and fled from the vehicle. However, he left the handbrake off, causing the car to roll back into the pursuing police car.
