A woman who fled police at more than 150km/h told police she had been drinking but passed the breath alcohol test.
Aromea Jasmine Te Maipi pleaded guilty to dangerous driving and failing to stop for police when she appeared in the Whanganui District Court on Tuesday.
On June 1, police attempted to stop Te Maipi on Glasgow St but she fled, eventually reaching speeds in excess of 150km/h on No3 Line.
When Te Maipi stopped later, she told police she had fled because she had been drinking, Sergeant Stephen Butler told the court. However, she passed a subsequent breath alcohol test.
Mr Butler said the Te Maipi's driving had put her and the public in extreme danger.
