The woman driving the Pathfinder said she was only going about 5 miles per hour when the speeding Cadillac hit her car and forced her off the road. Police said the woman who caused the crash initially got out of her car and ran away, but officers caught up to her and arrested her. She was arrested for driving with a suspended license. Police said she also had two warrants out for her arrest.
