A dodgy driver who led police on a dangerous five-minute pursuit across Cambridge, narrowly missing cyclists and other motorists, has been jailed.
Police signalled for Robert Busby to pull over as he drove his black Vauxhall Astra on the afternoon of 21 February (2021) on Coldhams Lane.
Busby initially began to slow and pull over to the left-hand side of the carriageway before making off onto Perne Road and Cherry Hinton Road.
During the pursuit, he narrowly avoided hitting other road users as he raced along at speeds of 80mph in 20mph zones.
Busby put the lives of motorists, pedestrians, cyclists and other road users at risk in his selfish attempt to try and flee from the police.
It was only by sheer luck – and thanks to the skill of other road users – that nobody was seriously hurt by Busby’s dangerous driving.

WE NEED YOUR HELP.Here at Emergency Services News, we aim to tell you stories that the mainstream media are not interested in reporting. Whilst the MSM love to berate and ridicule the emergency services, who is there to report on the realities of serving on the front line?
Emergency Services News is currently a loss-making entity. But our team of volunteers, all former emergency services personnel, do not do it for the money.
We do it because we are sick and tired of the mainstream media constantly trying to undermine the men and women who put their lives on the line to keep you and your family safe.
How many MSM journalists who speak ill of the emergency services have actually dared to don the uniform and risk their own lives to save the life of a complete stranger?
