A 20-year-old p-plater drove his ute at more than 200km/h, led police on a chase before crashing and blew over 0.1 when breath-tested, police allege.

Officers say they saw a red Holden Commodore ute allegedly speeding along Crookwell Road in Goulburn about 3am Sunday. Police checked the car's speed, which was 203km/h in a 100km/h zone.

Officers from the Traffic and Highway Patrol Command tried to stop the car and when the driver failed to pull over, they chased it.

The ute made a high-speed right turn into Chinamans Lane, police said.

When officers followed a short time later, they found the vehicle had crashed into a dirt embankment.

The driver had fled the scene on foot but a man was arrested after they found him hiding in a nearby paddock a short time later.

The man, on a P2 licence, was arrested and taken to Goulburn Police Station where a breath analysis revealed he had a blood-alcohol reading of 0.124. The legal limit for P-platers is zero.

The car was seized, the man's licence suspended and he will face court on multiple charges, including police pursuit (Skye's Law), mid-range drink-driving and exceeding the speed limit by more than 45km/h.

He is due to appear in Goulburn Local Court next month.
