THIS is the hilarious moment a driver raced down a suburban Brisbane street without realising a police car was right behind him.

A video, released by r/IdiotsInCars, shows the moment a hoon drove at pace down a street in Toowong.

Yet the driver failed to realise he was just in front of a police car who then quickly chased him up the street.

The dashcam footage which was taken by another car on the road ended with both the hoon and police car stopping behind red traffic lights.

People have taken to social media questioning how the driver did not realise there was a police car at his tail.

“Seriously. The cop car was literally right behind him the whole time. What poor road awareness,” one man said.

“Bahaha what a *******. For one, doing that speed in that high traffic area and secondly for doing it with a cop car behind them,” another said.
