Unless it took them a long time to respond it looked light daylight, no
visibility problems, and plenty of room to get off the road. Even
without going off road, it has two lanes like any other undivided highway.

I start making plans when I see an oncoming driver coming my way even if
it's a perfectly legitimate move into a center turning lane.



Both were young drivers so they probably did not think to think ahead.

In other news today, nearby a storm blew over a tree taking power lines
down. A 17 year old driver hit the lines and somehow a fire started on
the driver's side so she got out on the passenger side. Stepped on a
line and was electrocuted.


That's shocking!
