I am a skilled and seasoned rider as well. Using the other lane is never a good idea. It's last resort if you are going to plow into someone. His mistake wasn't the sand, his mistake was riding beyond the conditions of the road. Scouting runs and riding easy in unknown conditions isn't ideal situations in a perfect world, they are smart decisions by seasoned riders. Riding beyond the limits of the road and sight distance is a true blue rookie mistake.
