Well, yeah of course, thats pretty obvious but ordinary traffic wouldn't set of his spider-sense because its not a threat. If a vehicle was speeding up towards him, then it would go off because there's an immediate threat/danger but where there's no incident in traffic, there's no reason for his spider-sense to go off.
Correct
He did react differently. I just watched that particular scene 30mins ago for reference. He reacted sooner and effectively, allowing him to have the time to avoide the car's collision. Whereas in sm3, he reacted too slow thus, not being able to avoid Harry. The car's speed being slower had nothing to do with it, to me it looks as though the car and harry were moving towards Pete at similar speeds but thats irrelevent, the case in point is, that the spider-sense responded way too slow in sm3.
Not at all. The spider sense goes off all the time when there is danger. Like I said before, its a consistant occurance just like the ability to wall crawl is. The only times where the spider sense "doesn't go off" is if the threat is venom or anyone else who can somehow bypass the spider-sense or if, spidey deliberately or subconsciously ignores it. Key word, ignore.
First of all, as so many others are quick to point out, this is the movie not the comics. Raimi claims to know how what spidey's all about, so why not get it right? Secondly, writers dont have to spoon feed the notion that Pete deliberately/subconsciously ignores his spidey sense. That'll just serve nothing more as an unwanted distraction, something Stan Lee respectfully used to do with his comics back in the day but isn't needed today.
