Oh yes, this sounds familiar. The best bit is when you're halfway across a road that seconds ago you decided was clear. Then out of the corner of your eye -- WHICH NO LONGER EXISTS, DAMMIT! -- you see a bloody great truck or bus bearing silently down on you. Then, after you've leapt six foot into the air and landed on the grass verge in a heap, you hear your brain chuckle: "Gotcha!"
I actually did this last week, jumped across the road. Usually I swear under my breath and steel myself for the impact I KNOW isn't coming.
