The vehicle was safely stopped after police used a stinger device to stop it in Lamberhurst High Street.

Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs and driving without a licence.
A passenger in the car was also detained on suspicion of vehicle theft.
The driver has since been released on bail until Tuesday, April 18, while further investigations are conducted. The passenger will face no further consequences.
