You are walking along a road of constant width with sidewalks on each side. You can only walk on the sidewalks or cross the road perpendicular to the sidewalk. Coming up on a turn, you realize that you are on the “outside” of the turn; i.e., you are taking the longer way around the turn. The turn is a circular arc. Assuming that your destination is on the same side of the road as you are currently, let $\theta$ be the smallest turn angle, in radians, that would justify crossing the road and then crossing back after the turn to take the shorter total path to your destination. What is $\lfloor 100 \cdot \theta \rfloor$ ?
