A startling video has surfaced showing a woman desperately holding onto the hood of a moving vehicle during a road rage incident on the Gold Coast.

Natalie Alice Shaw, 22, recounted how in July, she was attempting to park when she encountered another driver heading in the wrong direction and obstructing her path.

Footage from security cameras reveals Shaw’s red vehicle navigating into a drive-thru, where she was approached by the other woman, who attempted to open her car door.

The unidentified woman initially walked away, only to return through the parking lot towards the drive-thru exit.

“She stood in front of my car and taunted, ‘What are you going to do? Hit me?’” Shaw explained in a video she recorded herself.

“I responded, ‘Well, yes, if you’re in my way, I’ll make you move,’” she added.

The woman then jumped onto the bonnet of the car before Shaw proceeded to drive out of the car park and onto Olsen Avenue in Molendinar, a busy main road with a 60km/h speed limit.

“I’m like driving, trying to get her off … like swerving, trying to get her off,” Shaw said.

The woman clung to the windscreen wipers, telling Shaw to “slow the f— down” before eventually falling off the side.

Shaw was charged with dangerous operation of a motor vehicle.

The ordeal was so strange, even Magistrate Sarah Thompson said “in 25 years of practice … I have never seen such bizarre behaviour”.

“The behaviour of the complainant was erratic, it was dangerous, it placed you in danger, you also placed her in danger,” Thompson said.

“It was a poor decision that you made in the circumstances, being confronted with what anyone objectively would see as a terrifying situation.”

Shaw was disqualified from driving for six months.

A rising para-athlete, her dreams of competing at the LA Paralympics in 2028 could be in jeopardy.
