On January 27, about 1.40am, police sighted a black Ford Territory on Edward Street.
Acting Inspector Steve Magnone said police attempted to stop the vehicle, which was driven by a female.
"The driver turned right onto Pearson Street, accelerating away from police to 100km/h in a 50km/h zone, making her way to Chaston Street where she continued to accelerate away at 120km/h.
Police terminated the pursuit due to safety concerns, but shortly after Acting Inspector Magnone said police located the vehicle crashed into a parked car in Glenfield Park.
"Police were then able to speak to the driver at which time she was arrested and charged with being unlicensed and leading pursuit," he said.
The woman will appear before Wagga Local Court at a later date.
Anyone with information on the incident or the whereabouts of the man involved is urged to contact Wagga Police Station on 6922 2599 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
