I was riding with my girl and a buddy of mine the other night, leaving dinner at a popular cruise spot.
The three of us were riding staggered behind two dudes on sports bikes as we pulled out onto the road exiting the town we were in.
Then one of the jap bikes dropped back and his buddy stayed in front of us. We proceeded at about 35 mph down the road for about a quarter mile, and all of a sudden here comes the other jap bike guy doing a wheelie in the oncoming traffic lane showing his *** thinking he was the hottest thing going.
Hilarity ensued when a car made a right off of a side street into the oncoming traffic lane right in front of this wheelie-ing idiot. He dropped to two wheels, tried to maneuver around the car, realized he couldn't, grabbed a whole bunch of front brake and awkwardly laid the bike down a few feet from the front bumper of the car.
Sometimes these things work themselves out.

Yeppers.. I've been cut off in my car, truck and while ridding...
Some Freaking people are just nuts and could care less..
Every one of my LEO's friends have been even cut off by some drivers while they are in their police cars.
But they usually wipe the smile off their face pretty quick after being pulled over.

I was coming down from the Dragon to Robinsville with my wife 1/4 mile behind....saw five crotch rockets buzz her at about a foot off of her shoulder (they had a straight two lane with a clear lane to pass).
As they came up on me I brked and started wobbling from side to side...they split like a covey of quail.
They caught me at a convenience store in Robbinsville and we got heated...I asked them how fast they were going when the went past my wife... guy answered "my GPS said
140".
I was so mad that I could not back off...my wife was pulling on my arm and I was givin' 'em hell. They got back on their bikes and buzzed off.

Any biker can be an ***. Sounds like she just didn't see you. **** happens. She might even be a newer[ish] rider and they don't have the best attention to detail yet. I think it takes a few hundred different close calls before you learn to ride 'eyes wide open'. lol
