Police have released dramatic video footage of a drink-driver who was involved in a 124mph police chase before causing a head-on collision.

Leon Karaloucas, of East Street, Maidstone, Kent, has been jailed for three years and eight months at Lewes Crown Court after pleading guilty to dangerous driving, causing serious injury and drink-driving.

He was also banned from driving for five years and 10 months and ordered to take an extended re-test.

The 34-year-old was caught after he drove past an unmarked police car in a white Seat Leon Cupra and failed to stop at the request of the officers.
