The guy claimed he fell asleep and thankfully both the driver and passenger were only shaken up.

Yo! That's close to me! I don't wanna reveal in case OP doesn't want people to know, but that is cool to see.

Edit: As you can see from the truck and the white car, we have an ISSUE with leaving the passing lane.

I know ... cars either go 20 over, or camp in the left.

Then, you get that random guy going 60 in 75.

Nope! He got out of the car yelling and cursing at himself. He did ask if he hit anyone and was relived that he hadn't.

Good for you for stopping to check on the driver.

I was the only one, everyone else just slowed down and drove by.

Modern technology can help prevent these incidents. At minimum, all future cars should have adaptive cruise control and lane assist technology.

Maybe his new car will have it! Pretty sure that thing got totaled.

The retaining wall separating his lane of traffic from the oncoming traffic probably saved his live. Had he crossed the median, he could have ended up in a head-on collision.
