Treadmill effect

When a blazed person walks outdoors and it appears that buildings are coming towards him/her rather than him/her walking towards the buildings. This gives the illusion that the earth is a huge treadmill and the person is not moving from where he/her is walking.
Person A - God damn! it seems like the movie theaters is coming towards me even tho I'm walking towards it.

Person B - It's the treadmill effect.
