Out of control driver does donuts in intersection, hits police car — VIDEO

A woman doing donuts and hitting police cars in a busy intersection was a big scare for residents in a North Carolina city Thursday. 

The erractic driver was waving her arms out her window and driving in circles when a bystander, Chad McGaha, began filming her. 

While cars driving through the intersection at first tried avoiding her, they were inevitably forced to simply wait out the unbelievable situation, after she crashed into crossing vehicles, bringing the intersection to a standstill. 

Police responded to the frantic 911 calls to only have the woman hit their police cruisers multiple times. 

The woman's driving eventually caused her to run off the road and crash down a 12-foot embankment, flipping over her car, finally giving police the opportunity to arrest her. 

According to WCNC, the woman was taken to the hospital and told officers her name was "faith, hope and love." She may face charges in connection with this incident including two counts of assault with a deadly weapon on a government official.
