Context, Pete, context. While I'm riding, I ignore the stripe. When I'm stopped with my bike leaning up against a post on the sidewalk and I'm looking at the stripes, I'm not ignoring them.

BTW, did you only measure the length of a single dash and one gap?
Yes, and using the term "measure" loosely. Like I said, I guesstimated.

So now superior vigilance isn't about alert watchfulness but instinct? How can you be alertly watchful yet ignore threats to your safety?
I'm not playing this game. Read Hurst's book. He explains it very well.
