Man jailed after leading police on 145mph North Yorkshire chase

A disqualified motorist who left court after being banned and then led police on a 145mph chase has been jailed for dangerous driving.

North Yorkshire Police (NYP) said that Jason Ryder, 45, ignored calls by officers for him to stop and drove at speeds of up to 145mph, weaving in and out of traffic along the A59, A1(M) northbound and A6055 towards Northallerton on March 20, forcing other road users to take evasive action to avoid a collision with him.
