Authorities say a driver led officers on a high-speed chase in the Sierra on Wednesday.

The chase began near South Lake Tahoe. California Highway Patrol officers tried to pull a 2006 BMW for speeding on Highway 50, but the driver would not pull over. The chase reached speeds of 100 mph.

The BMW swerved in and out of both lanes and into the shoulder to try and avoid officers. The driver even managed to avoid a spike strip laid out on Sly Park Road.
