Almost got in an accident!

i was driving home from the mall last night with my friend. I was drivin my sisters '02 Civic LX Sedan. well its was already 9 pm and i was supposed to be home then, and i was abt 10 miles away from home. SInce i was late i was goin 50 in a 40. Well i'm going down this 3 lane street when some lady in a old Ford Escort takes a U-turn from the opposite side of the road and cuts me off. I checked my shoulder and switched to the extreme right lane (i was originally in the left lane). All of a sudden the lady goes into that lane w/o even signaling. What pissed me off the most is that she was goin abt 20mph. I checked again if i could change to the middle lane, but there were cars so i had no choice but to hit the brakes, if i wanted to avoid a collision. The road had loose gravel on it and the road was all uneven so that caused my car to tilt to somewhat of an angle. I was maybe 10inches from her rear bumper. So i go bak to the middle lane and stop at the red light. I look over at the old escort to see who the hell that was, and to mysurprise the lady starts cussing and gives me the finger. I'm telling you some people really **** me off. And it really scared the everything outta me, cuz i've only been driving for a couple of months now. sorry just had to let it out.

why would she be cussing at you? if it were me, i would have gotten off my car and given her a little scare!
