An angry woman was arrested in Zhejiang Province in eastern China after she deliberately ran 49 red lights in her ex-boyfriend's car, according to local media.

The woman, identified only as Lou, asked a man called Chen to rent her former partner's Audi, the state-run Global Times newspaper reported.

Chen then handed the car to another man called Zhu who, with Lou, used the car in a two-day marathon committing traffic offenses, the Global Times said.

Zhu and Lou also ran 49 red lights before they were stopped by the police, the newspaper added.
