It wasn't on purpose, she's just a really bad driver.
That's what 23-year-old Tracy Cline, of Solon, told police on March 12 when her ex-boyfriend called 911 because Cline was chasing him down SR 91 and ramming his car with hers.
The man was on the phone with dispatchers as Cline hit him in the rear end three times, after the two had met earlier to discuss settling debt. She told police he owed her money and refused to pay it. He said she hiked up his payment after what they previously agreed. When he left, she followed him.
