Hawker man Thomas Matthews, 30, is accused of deliberately driving into a male detective leading senior constable and two female constables near the National Arboretum on July 11.

The most senior of the trio had been training the junior pair, who were recent ACT Policing recruits, in traffic duties.

They had pulled over a Toyota Aurion at the intersection of Forest Drive and Lady Denman Drive when Mr Matthews, driving a Ford Laser, allegedly veered off the road and headed directly for them.

Police have said the male officer was thrown onto the bonnet of the Laser, striking the windscreen before landing on the ground.

One of the female constables was also thrown to the floor after being struck, it is alleged, while the other was run over and pinned under the Ford.

Despite their injuries, the officers managed to arrest Mr Matthews.
