A teenage driver who failed to stop for a police car at Yeppoon after lights and sirens were activated, has copped a whopping $6700 fine.
If Tyler Thomas Bernard Worley did not learn his lesson from the dramatic events which unfolded when he appeared in Yeppoon Magistrates Court last Thursday, then he never will.
It was there the 19-year-old pleaded guilty to failing to stop for a police direction, and nothing could have prepared him for what was about to follow.
Police prosecutor Darrell Dalton told the court that on January 25 last year, about 8.05pm, police had been conducting patrols on Yeppoon Road.
