When someone's walking towards me head-on, I don't do an awkward side-step in sync with them. That usually ensures a collision. I stop still, and close my eyes. They then avoid me.

Taking a bus in a foreign country (e.g. China) without reading the timetable is challenging. So I would get on the first bus going the right direction, and stay on until it deviated from my desired path. Then I'd get off, walk to the next stop, and repeat.
