The two men, who are both aged in their 20s, were allegedly fleeing the scene of an apparent robbery in Ballyfermot where building material had allegedly been taken from a van.
The sulky collided with Gardai on patrol on the Blackditch Road a short time later and both men were arrested.
They were detained at Ballyfermot Garda station but were later released.
A file is being prepared for the DPP and investigations are ongoing.
No injuries were reported and the alleged stolen material has since been recovered.
