Caution yes. Panic no. I was cautious before 9/11 and panic is not in my DNA. You may startle me but I get my composure before I decide whether to laugh or punch or run. Panic is never the right response. I've seen people panic themselves from a minor threat into a real crisis. It only takes a few calm seconds to make the right choice based on the info you have. Fight or flee. If flee, don't flee the skateboarder into path of speeding truck.
