Title: Doesn't seem a very long sentence? 150mph plus drugs

Drug dealer, endangering others lives, wasn't just a short high speed chase either. 2 years and eight months. Out in 1 year and 4 months?  Maybe I am just getting old.

What happens to the guys car? Who pays for the damage to the other vehicles?

Not sure for damage to other vehicles, probably get told to claim through there Insurance?

In serious Criminal Activity, theres a thing called Proceeds of Crime, where the Courts can impose additional payment of funds, loss of Assetts or face more sentencing after your initial sentence.

My 3.2 ExPlod (which was parked up on Private Property) got hit by a car that was being chased by the Police, He ended up smashing into a BT Telegraph Poll, bouncing off that through a Niebourghs Cast Iron Gate, out the wall the other side and ended up on top of my Omega, I got nothing as Plod said He was driving without His girlfriends permission, therefore He had no Insurance in place.  >:( >:(

I'd have expected at least five years but, hey, the prisons are overcrowded and understaffed by glorified private sector security guards.

Is there a need for high speed chases that put peoples lives at risk these days?  :-\

After watching the video, I'd have thought that the helicopter (or drone) could have tracked the car from afar and the police on the ground could have followed discretely and nicked him when he stopped.  :-\

Have you watched these interceptor programmes? It's what they go to work for. They freely admit to loving the adrenaline rush they get from "driving fast cars and catching the bad boys".
