The married father of two appeared in Mullingar District Court today on crutches.
22 empty beer cans were found in a car which crashed into a wall outside a creche in Longford earlier this week following a high speed Garda chase.
35 year old William Lawrence, of Cloncovid, Kilcogy, Cavan, was charged with 6 counts of dangerous driving, failure to have insurance or his driving licence as well as a drive off offence at a petrol station in Ballinalee on Monday.
Gardai attempted to stop the vehicle which was driving erratically.
The married father of two appeared in Mullingar District Court today on crutches after it heard he suffered a broken ankle or foot as well as a dislocated hip following the incident.
He was refused bail and was remanded in custody to Cloverhill District Court next Tuesday.
