Spooked a horse & rider

I was riding on a rural road yesterday afternoon. The road was empty of cars and the only thing in sight was a lady riding a horse in the grass of the left hand side of the road. She was riding the same direction as me and had her back to me. I was all the way on the right hand side of the road. As I got closer the horse got spooked and almost threw the lady on off the horse. She got it under control fairly quick, pretty much as I came even with her.

She turned and said that I needed to tell her I was coming. She was nice about it but I could tell she was a bit shook by almost getting tossed. I apologized and said I just didn't realize that the horse would have gotten spooked like that.

Anybody ever have this happen?
