Police were patrolling Lookout Road, New Lambton Heights, when they attempted to stop an allegedly stolen vehicle.
The vehicle failed to stop as directed, initiating a police pursuit that was soon terminated due to safety concerns.
Road spikes were successfully deployed at Kotara South, with the vehicle coming to a stop a short time later.
A 22-year-old man and a 41-year-old woman were arrested at the scene, the man charged with five offences.
The woman was also charged with both taken to Waratah Police Station.
