The Toyota sedan came to a stop at Ipswich Boonah Road at Peak Crossing, and a man was taken into custody around 10:15am.
He's since been charged with murder (domestic violence offence) and dangerous operation of a vehicle.
Detective Acting Superintendent Garry Watts confirmed the man and woman were in a de facto relationship.
"The man surrendered into our custody," he said.

Detective Acting Superintendent Watts said police had visited the home in the days before she died.
"I can tell you that the police had attended that address in the last week as a result of information received," he said.
"However no offences were detected. An investigation was conducted but there was no action taken."
Neighbours who spoke to the ABC said a young couple lived at the property.
One neighbour described hearing fighting about 11:00pm last night at the address.
The man will appear before Ipswich Magistrates Court on Tuesday.

Asked if he was "satisfied" with how police responded when they visited the home last week, Detective Acting Superintendent Garry Watts said he was.
Earlier, he said police had been called to the home where the woman was found dead and had taken no action.
"I am satisfied that the response that we provided last week was in accordance with our policies, and the appropriate action was taken but as you can imagine the entirety of the relationship between these two people will form part of our brief of evidence and will undergo scrutiny by the coroner."
