Two teenagers, allegedly involved in the car accident which has left a police officer fighting for his life, are facing the prospect of years behind bars.

Constable Peter McAulay remains in a critical condition after undergoing emergency surgery for serious head injuries after being struck on Brisbane Road at Booval yesterday morning.

A 16-year-old boy, allegedly driving the car, and a 15-year-old girl who was his alleged passenger, have both been charged with attempted murder and unlawful use of a motor vehicle. Neither of them applied for bail in court today.

The 16-year-old was on bail at the time for violent robberies, break and enter, possessing dangerous drugs and receiving tainted property. Social media posts show him driving with gloves less than a week ago.

The 15-year-old girl's Facebook account also tells a graphic story with photos of her driving a car with a friend, and further discussions about what cars she would like to steal.

She appeared in court on Wednesday charged with 20 offences from previous car chases involving stolen vehicles. As well as nine counts of stealing, possessing dangerous drugs and failing to appear at court.

She had been on bail as well, living with a woman who took her in and who told 9NEWS she should go to jail.

Today, on Police Remembrance Day, the focus of the police community has been on the injured officer and his family.

The 24-year-old constable had been setting up road spikes in an attempt to intercept a stolen car when he was struck on Brisbane Road at Booval.

It is believed the driver may have swerved to avoid the stingers, and instead ploughed into Const McAulay, who was dragged several metres down the road.

It is alleged the driver did not stop and the car was eventually found crashed into a tree on nearby Vowels Street.

The car was abandoned a short distance from the accident site on Brisbane Street and the two men fled on foot. (9news)

The two teenagers, accused of fleeing the scene on foot, were arrested a short time after with the help of the dog squad.

There were renewed calls today for engine immobilisers to be installed in all new cars .

Const McAulay is based at the Goodna Police Station and has only been in the Service for about four years.

Queensland Police Union president Ian Leavers said he was facing the "fight of his life" in Princess Alexandra Hospital, where he is in an induced coma in the ICU.

His family and partner, who is also a serving member of Queensland Police have kept a bedside vigil.

"We are extremely grateful for the tremendous amount of support and well-wishes we have received not only from our police family, but the Queensland and wider community," they said in a statement today.

The incident has sent shock-waves through the police community as officers acknowledge Police Remembrance Day today.

"Every officer and staff member of the Queensland Police Service (QPS) is thinking of Constable McAulay, his family and his loved ones today," the Queensland Police Service said in a statement yesterday.
