Well, as Roland said, you can't go left when someone is going straight in the other direction. I can't think of any rational reason why someone would wave you through in that situation. Maybe she was brushing her hair or swatting a mosquito?
You could have gotten a warning, but those are really a roll of the dice. Maybe the way you did it looked really dangerous (it would have been a head-on collision on the lady's driver side if things had gone bad). Maybe the cop didn't really buy your story. Maybe she didn't like your attitude. Or even possibly, it could be a community like New Rome, Ohio, where nobody ever gets warnings and tickets are doled out like cheap plastic toys.
It's certainly possible to make the court date and contest the ticket. Not sure if that would be worth your while in this case or not.
