The incident happened between 15:40 and 15:50 BST on 23 October between Eastriggs and Annan.

The speed limit on the vast majority of the road is 60mph (95km/h).

The video involves a "dark-coloured performance model Volkswagen". Anyone with dashcam footage or who saw the vehicle has been asked to come forward.
