Patrols were directed to the house at Lewiston where the driver had gone inside.
The 19-year-old Lewiston man was arrested and charged with driving at an extreme speed, driving in a manner dangerous to the public, driving while disqualified and driving without a rear number plate. He was bailed to appear in the Elizabeth Magistrates Court on 20 May.
His vehicle was impounded for 28 days.
