Police say officers tried to stop a man on a motorcycle along the Pacific Highway at Hamlyn Terrace just after 11pm, but he didn’t pull over.

They followed him, until he lost control on Primrose Drive and hit a gutter.

Police allege during the pursit the rider reached speeds of 150 kpm, in a 50 zone.

While arresting the 39-year-old Bateau Bay man, officers allegedly found 1.1-kilograms of methylamphetamine.

He’s facing several drug and driving charges and will face court on April 20.
