NSW man charged over dangerous burnouts

A driver has been charged after he was filmed allegedly performing dangerous burnouts in Sydney's south.

A 31-year-old man narrowly avoided multiple crashes while doing burnouts for about 200 metres along Bay Street in Brighton-Le-Sands on Sunday afternoon, police said.

A witness filmed the incident on a mobile phone and the footage was shown to police, who later arrested the man at a Hurstville home.

He has been given conditional bail to appear at Sutherland Local Court in December.
