A young daughter of a friend of mine had a similar thing happen many years ago. It was on a straight stretch of road during daylight. She decided to go to the opposite lane as he was getting closer he was actually on her shoulder. At the last second, he swerved back to his lane. Hit her head-on and she died. Her passenger lived to tell story. The other driver was drunk. He got off fairly easy, for killing someone, as his lawyer said she should not have been in his lane.
So, don't ever go to the other lane, as you never know if the other driver will wake up and go back to his own lane. Which is happening more all the time with cell phone distracted drivers, and they finally see they have crossed the center line and pull it back.
I hate those center line rumble strips, but hopefully they are helping to save lives from idiots.
