    This is the shocking moment a drug driver smashes into a barrier during a dangerous police chase. 

    In the dashcam footage released by Cambridgeshire Police the Cannabis-smoking driver – Mohammad Mazhar –  can be seen zig-zagging through busy traffic in attempt to evade capture. 

    Mazhar then speeds along a busy A-road, in Peterborough, before he hits the central reservation which causes the car to veer across the thoroughfare and come to a stop on the offside.

    The 22-year-old has been disqualified from driving for three years and jailed for two weeks for the drug-induced crash.

    He was driving a was driving a silver BMW on the afternoon of May 5 when it activated an Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) camera for having no insurance.

    Road policing officers, who were behind Mazhar on the Nene Parkway in Peterborough, Cambs, followed him along the A1139 towards Stanground where he was seen to weave in and out of traffic.

    Dashcam footage shows the young driver cut up another motorist while exiting a roundabout, before tailgating and then dangerously overtaking another driver on a slipway.

    He crosses no-go hatching to join a dual carriageway but minutes later hits the central reservation before veering across the road and coming to a stop on the offside.

    As officers ran to the car, Mazhar was caught climbing over the front passenger seat to get out but was forced to the floor and handcuffed before being arrested.

    Mazhar later tested positive for cannabis.

    Mazhar, of Grange Avenue, Dogsthorpe, Peterborough, appeared at Peterborough Crown Court on Thursday November 28 where he was sentenced to 14 days in prison and disqualified from driving for three years after previously pleading guilty to drug driving and driving without insurance.

    He must also carry out 80 hours of unpaid work after breaching a previously suspended two-year prison sentence for being concerned in the supply of crack cocaine and heroin.

    PC Nick Southern, Casualty Reduction Officer, said: ‘Mazhar was under the influence of drugs and his manner of driving put not only himself but other road users at risk.

    ‘He was weaving in and out of traffic on a busy road before losing control, thankfully no one was injured as a result of his selfish actions.’
