Default So I almost got crushed today

I was driving with my friend back home tonight (around 1:00 am). My friend was driving his Accord, I was in the passenger seat. This was on 66 right after you cross over the beltway going towards DC (east). Then all of a sudden a white/silver sedan starts merging into our lane. My friend honks the horn and hits the brakes. The guy merges into our lane, then merges into the shoulder, then plows right off into the grass probably 1 foot from the concrete walls that line 66. Almost takes out a sign, but manages to avoid hitting anything. We had just passed a Riverdale Park Ranger car from MD, he put on his lights after he saw what happened and most likely is talking to that guy right now. Glad to see our Park Rangers out there doing their job Anyways I am guessing the guy fell asleep at the wheel judging from how he managed to save himself from hitting the wall.

CN: Guy probably falls a sleep at wheel on 66, misses hitting us by a foot, then misses hitting wall by another foot and manages to get back onto the shoulder of the road unscathed for the most part. Park Ranger flashes lights and pulls up behind him.
