A disqualified driver reached speeds of 50mph with four punctured tyres in a wild police chase over many miles in south Wales where he drove on the wrong side of the road and through red lights, a court heard.
Daniel Green, 29, became involved in a police chase through Brynmawr, Blaenau Gwent, after a warrant was issued for his arrest.
When he was eventually caught by police he refused to answer questions saying he was "withdrawing from heroin".
