She was held in custody overnight and is scheduled to appear in the Hobart Magistrates Court today.

Police are asking anyone who may have witnessed a black 2004 Ford Falcon with the number plates FG1467 driving dangerously to come forward.

They are particularly interested in speaking with the driver of a white sedan that was allegedly hit by the vehicle at the Mornington Roundabout or anyone who may have dashcam footage.
