I had this happen to me several years ago, only the woman nearly ran into me with the front of her car (she just kept coming and coming and I had to actually run into the other lane to avoid being hit, putting myself at risk of being hit by any cars in that lane). I screamed at her...think I might have made her crap her pants, which would have served her right.
