A Hawke's Bay police officer has been charged with dangerous driving causing injury after crashing his rare hot-rod in September.
Flaxmere Constable Shane Greville was off duty when his black Chevrolet Camaro was involved in a collision with another car at 6pm on September 27 along Napier Rd in Havelock North.
An internal police investigation was conducted after a female driver was injured and taken to hospital as a result of the incident.
Greville appeared in Hastings District Court today and entered no plea to one count of dangerous driving causing injury, police said.
The matter was adjourned until January 7. No name suppression was requested by his lawyer Jonathan Krebs.
