VIDEO – 20-min ‘Sleeping Dogs’ Police Chase Ends in Arrest 5

His driving licence was revoked over a decade ago for failing to pay traffic penalties.

In the video, an officer can be heard calling for back-up and shouting at the perpetrator get out of his car, as the chase continued through the New Territories at over 100mph…

The driver was finally intercepted at a dead-end road in Sha Tin.

The footage has been compared to Sleeping Dogs and Grand Theft Auto by netizens.

As the dash-cam video compilation below shows, it is rare that such drama unfolds on Hong Kong roads. However, carelessness and near-misses are far from uncommon…
