Have often you experience Déjà vu ?

I experience them at times. It does turn out to be something that I did see before. Scientific explanation of Deja Vu:

Déjà vu may happen if a person experienced the current sensory experience twice successively. The first input experience is brief, degraded, occluded, or distracted. Immediately following that, the second perception might be familiar because the person naturally related it to the first input. One possibility behind this mechanism is that the first input experience involves shallow processing, which means that only some superficial physical attributes are extracted from the stimulus.

yes. many times in many situations, but then again... i am a creature of habit.

there was this one traffic light i would go through, same time every day, and the same song would be playing. well, i left work same time everyday, and the radio played the same tape track, same time, everyday, while i was partially spaced-out, and there's the ingredients for "i feel i've been here before, while hearing this, seeing this, and feeling this feeling before."

Yes. The frequency has calmed down but I did experience it. It was a 3 to 5 second "clip", of the future event but out of context. When that event did happen, I did realise that it was foretold in a deja vu.
There is one which is still outstanding though.
