How to describe a car approaching the character?

1

In a story, A woman is walking alongside the road. How would you describe a car Pulling up beside her? I thought about maybe she heard the cars (muffler?) Or some part of the car that makes noise (on older cars) when driving. Help?

I would do something along the lines of the crunching of gravel as the car tyres pulled along the shoulder of the road...makes it sound a bit more ominous.

does the car pull up to her by doing a mid drift 360? because if so the best way to describe it is SCRRRRREEEE-WHOOOSSSSSHHH-SCREEEE
