If a car is coming at me from behind, I used to turn the horse completely around untill they were comfortable with the traffic. Now I just turn the head so they can see it coming and I just continue, but I don't let it be a surprise. In the case of a horse galloping, tho, herd instinct may make your horse want to run from whatever was chasing that horse into a gallop. That rider was just plain rude and I'll bet responsible for a lot of other horse accidents.
