By very loose analogy, either when playing chicken, or when you and a person walking towards you both repeatedly veer in the same direction to avoid collision, one tactic is to very conspicuously cover your eyes. The other person can then see that you will not re-correct based on their behavior. Though I know this option exists, I have never successfully used it. It's always difficult to truly intentionally commit to limit your options to respond to future circumstance.
I heard of this as a kid, something along the lines of 'when walking down a street make an effort to look forward, through people (and not at them)'.
Same concept applies, and in my experience it seems to work. Though this was before the era of phones (and people not looking where they're going regardless)
