I would too! I hate uphill stops, and it seems like DH always gets right across as he is usually ahead of me and a bit braver, and I end up having to walk across or cut across the road I'm on to get going again (only if absolutely no cars are around) and then cross. If I know one of these is on a route, I'll go another way to avoid it too. So, I don't think you're strange...or else I am too.
