Long story, short ask (Re horns)

For the first time since I went back to cycling in March or April, I just almost got run over. Lady pulling out of a driveway onto a busy street was looking only one direction-- away from me-- and for once my paranoid anticipation failed me. I managed to stop before she hit me, and as I screeched to a stop while shouting, she stopped. Unfortunately she was so close I couldn't put a foot down as I started falling so I ended up falling on her car, sprawled on her hood, nose to nose with her through her windshield. It wasn't all acting on my part, though maybe I didn't absolutely need to bounce a few times for a few extra sheet metal dents.

All's well that ends well. But now I'm in the market for an air horn.

Suggestions?
