Police said the 30-year-old man, who was driving the other car, did not render assistance and abandoned his vehicle before fleeing the scene with his 29-year-old female passenger.

Through extensive ground enquiries and the use of images from police cameras and closed-circuit television cameras, traffic police officers established the identities of the pair.

They were arrested on Friday in the vicinity of West Coast Road.

Preliminary investigations revealed that the man had driven a deregistered car with a cloned number plate while under disqualification, police said.

He will face nine charges, including dangerous driving causing death, dangerous driving causing hurt, and driving while under disqualification as a repeat offender.

The other charges are failing to stop after an accident, failing to render assistance, using a vehicle without insurance, using a deregistered vehicle, using a vehicle without a licence and displaying a false licence plate.

The offence of dangerous driving causing death carries a jail term of up to eight years.

Police said they take a serious view of motorists who use deregistered vehicles, drive while under disqualification or commit other serious traffic offences.

"Such reckless and irresponsible acts endanger the safety of other road users," they said, adding that they would not hesitate to take firm action against motorists who disregard traffic laws and endanger others.
