I accidentally cut someone off and I can’t stop worrying?
So today I pulled out of the parking lot and I thought a guy was way farther back than he was, but it turns out he was going really fast and caught up to me, so he pulled and front of me, slammed on the breaks and got out and screamed at Me. I’m a 17 year old girl and it was a grown man so it was really scary. But my question is can’t I get in trouble for this if he reports it? I have a clean driving record and I’m so stressed about it! Thank you

Your safe. No way that can amount to anything but, in the future, try to not cut off crazy people.
Absent a collision, the police won't even pretend to investigate a claim of cutting someone off that they didn't witness.
No. He's a whacko but be more cautious driving in the future. There are a lot of nuts out there.
He can report it, but the authorities will laugh at him for wasting their time, not to mention he'd have to admit he was driving recklessly. He was at fault, not you. Don't engage with people like that...road rage is a serious issue. Oh, and get a dash cam for your car. Seriously. A dash cam has saved me, and many other people, from the likes of these people.
No. He is not a police officer and can't report you. He is a "little man" that found someone he could bully.
Doubt it. Even if he does report he doesn’t have proof you did it unless they show the cops a video but I doubt they’ll do anything for that.
Yes you will get in trouble if he reports that. You were 100% in the wrong. You pulled out sooner than you were supposed to. You should have let him pass you first before pulling out. Be more responsible and learn to drive; or surrender your driver’s license and don’t drive. The choice is yours.
No, people make mistakes. Nothing happened and his actions were intentionally dangerous. He was far more wrong than you.
