Think of it this way. If there are many cars on the road, why do you not bump into them when you cross the road? You wait until there is a small time window to cross, and that is when you cross. Sometimes it’s too windy and you wait for a longer distance between cars to cross, but if the weather is really good then you can cross when there is just a little distance between cars
