POLICE seized a suspected pool car while carrying out speed checks in Heckmondwike.
Officers were in the White Lee Road area of the town on Saturday night when they spotted the white VW Golf.
Batley and Spen's Neighbourhood Policing Team three saw the vehicle, which sped off when they attempted to follow it.
Police said the car almost crashed into oncoming traffic as it fled the scene.
However, the car has since been located, recovered and is waiting to be checked by Crime Scene Investigation.
Police added that the driver can also "expect an invitation for a day out in court."
