A dark-coloured car was seen driving ’70 or 80′ miles an hour down the A406 North Circular on June 30.
Around 1.30pm the driver was spotted by other road users after they heard horns beeping as drivers swerved away.
The driver was thought to have come off at the Waterworks corner, in Woodford, being chased by several police cars.

A witness said: “We heard the beeping on the other side of the road and saw people trying to swerve away.
“Police were flying past us chasing the car and people were beeping constantly.
“It was quite scary.
“We were thinking how much we would have panicked if we’d seen a car coming at us the wrong way like that.”
The Met Police have been contacted for comment.
It’s not a moment, a shocking moment on a London road has been caught on camera.
