The former West Coast Eagle allegedly continued to drive through red lights at low speed.
Police arrested him at the corner of Gill and Solomon streets in Mosman Park.
A WA Police statement said a 36-year-old man from Bicton, believed to be Cousins, was charged with reckless driving, failing to stop and failing to give a sample of breath.
He will appear in Fremantle Magistrates Court court on April 8 after being released on bail.
