Driver choice kicks up dust near work

Wow, While thinking about my ideas on how to avoid problems on the road I was shown that was not possible. While going around a right curve on a two lane road I noticed a car in the left lane appearing from nowhere. I guess he was going 25 to 30 miles an hour faster than I was. I was going 55. I stayed in my lane as steadily as I could while watching his vehicle flash past my rear view mirrors left to right, a few feet from my rear bumper. Next I heard a slight crunch as I caught a glimpse of the road sign slapping his roof. He was fine, shaken but fine.

I'm glad I did a double check before changing lanes!
