A shocking video has emerged from China of a motorist reversing into a scooter driver as he tries to avoid a police check.

In the CCTV footage, filmed in Hefei, Anhui Province, China last Wednesday, a Mercedes-Benz can be seen reversing at high speed as two policemen, who reportedly were conducting breath tests, run after the car.

The motorist reportedly surrendered to the police and the scooter driver was taken to hospital.
