Police said two officers were in the police car on a routine patrol on Deamer Crescent about 11am when they noticed a black ute with no number plates.
The officers turned on their emergency lights and siren, indicating for the driver of the ute to stop. Instead, he accelerated a short distance before losing control of the vehicle.
The ute spun onto the wrong side of the road before crashing into the police car.
