Kieran James Hindle was allegedly in a stolen Ford Falcon utility when he came to police attention last Thursday night.
It's alleged the 31-year-old drove the vehicle, which had false plates, at high speed in a dangerous manner and failed to stop.
Charges allege he was disqualified at the time.
The vehicle crashed on Kaitlers Road, at the intersection of Kemp Street, causing extensive damage to the traffic lights and the stolen utility.
