Ashlea Albertson has died age 24
Ashlea was the passenger in one of two vehicles involved in the incident on Interstate 65 in Jackson County, Indiana, cops said.
She was thrown from the car at about 11.30am on Friday and was flown to hospital, where she later died.
It is understood her fiancé Jacob Kelly, 31, was driving the GMC Terrain in the left lane when a black 2016 Chevrolet Malibu pulled up in the right lane.
According to police, the “two drivers began accelerating rapidly and refused to allow the other vehicle to pass”.
The Chevrolet – being driven by a 22-year-old – is then said to have veered into the left lane.
Cops say the cars then crashed, and Ashlea was ejected from the vehicle as it rolled.
