This absolute nut job passed me going 100 plus heading into Nashville, the wind from the car even blew down my pants from inside my car and the window was on the other side was the only one open. I thought it was a dam jet going by me at first but then I caught the plate number. Also I saw her ripping donuts at a red light when I caught up to her and she was pulling into random houses we thought it was her house but then she slammed it into reverse and took off to bum fuck Egypt. This driver is very unsafe and needs to be taken off the road asap.
