Police officers had to take refuge behind their car when a recidivist driving offender fled from them in a Canberra McDonald's drive-through, then smashed into a petrol bowser at an adjoining service station.
Gungahlin woman Coral-Lee Friebel, 37, spent nearly six months in custody over the incident, providing what magistrate James Stewart described as "a significant wake-up call" when he ordered her release.
