The vehicle was seized and officers also found the driver was uninsured.
3 in the cells for #ARV for drug matters, after a short pursuit and de-camp. Driver chased & detained by @SwindonPolice who were assisted by #RPU. It's a shame for the driver, that his own acceleration wasn't as good as the car he wasn't insured to drive is. #seized #teamwork pic.twitter.com/Mx7RRJcHFe
