A speeder on Ring Road in Regina was clocked at 165 km/h on Monday morning.
Regina Police say an officer saw the black Ford Mustang approaching and turned on his radar equipment.
The officer made a u-turn in the median and chased the Mustang, but the driver accelerated.
There was a short pursuit, but for safety reasons, the officer stopped after hitting speeds of between 175 and 180 km/h.
The officer continued the search at normal speeds and found the vehicle again, placing the police vehicle in the path of the suspect vehicle.
The driver was arrested without further incident.
A 25 year old man from Montmarte, Dane Rusk, is charged with flight while being pursued by police.

The Candian government wants the country’s banks to identify, in customers’ bank statements when they receive the carbon rebate, that it is labelled as such.
Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault says the lack of a clear identifier is contributing to confusion about carbon price rebates, so he is going to change the law if he has to in order to force the big banks to identify the carbon rebate by name when doing direct deposits.
The first rebate deposits in 2022 were labelled very generically, which meant recipients had no idea why they were getting the money.
T-D and B-MO have adopted the government’s requested “CdaCarbonRebate” entry, R-B-C and Scotiabank say they couldn’t make the change in time for the rollout, and C-I-B-C is still calling it “Deposit Canada.”
