Craddock Road, Colne A MOTORIST driving an Audi on cloned plates sped off after being eye-balled by a police officer who had previously arrested him.
Blackburn magistrates heard the officer followed Benjamin David Lee onto a car park and managed to get nose-to-nose with him before he manoeuvred his way back onto the road. He went the wrong way down Craddock Road, Colne, at 60mph towards a blind bend and traffic lights and the officer decided it was too dangerous to follow. Less than three weeks later Lee was again seen behind the wheel of a car and after colliding with a parked vehicle got out and ran off.
