The woman climbed onto the hood early on Saturday morning, outside the couple's home in Manteca, California, because she wanted to keep her husband from driving off, said the city's police spokesman, Rex Osborn.
But instead of stopping, Christopher Carroll, 36, sped away with his wife clinging to the hood, Osborn said.
Police said they would not identify the woman because she is the victim of domestic violence, but Osborn said she is in her 30s and a mother.
In Pleasanton, the woman rolled off the hood when Carroll slowed down, police said.
Carroll was arrested back at his Manteca home, and charged with attempted murder and domestic violence, Osborn said.
No charges were filed tied to Carroll's methamphetamine use, which the woman described, he said.
"Her big message is this meth has ruined her life, affected her husband's family, his children, just because of poor choices," Osborn said. (Reporting by Alex Dobuzinskis: Editing by Peter Bohan
