I'm very impressed that you did have the presence of mind to throw his keys into traffic.
It reminds me of Michael yanking open the car door of a driver who had pulled up onto a zebra crossing, in order to even the power balance or something. In this instance he realised that he'd scared her, and ended up feeling guilty (car drivers can feel quite vulnerable with their seatbelts still on). But I bet she respected other road users more afterwards.
