Moree police attempted to stop the vehicle and set up a road spike along the bypass.
The spikes were unsuccessful in stopping the vehicle and the driver continued travelling north on the Newell Highway, towards Boggabilla.
Police engaged in another pursuit, which was again terminated due to the unsafe speed of the driver.
Boggabilla and Goondiwindi police were notified to keep a look-out for the vehicle. It was seen entering the Goondiwindi township and was last seen heading north out of Goondiwindi towards Toowoomba.
Police are now calling for information from the public in relation to the vehicle, which was bearing ACT number plates YBJ-16N.

"We're after any information from truck drivers or cars with in-car cameras that might help us identify the occupants of the vehicle," Moree Police officer-in-charge Inspector Martin Burke said.
Inspector Burke said the occupants of the vehicle are believed to be a male driver and female passenger.
