Default Cat's Eyes

Was just wondering has anyone else been stupid/misfortunate enough to be riding along, dangling your feet and generally not having a care in the world while you change lanes, only to smash your toes into a cats eye? Has happened to me twice now (once on each foot) and it hurts like buggery, i'm thinking I really should know better by now..
