Also happens in movies.
One of my little annoyances is when it is in broad daylight and the character says we need to get to 54th Avenue (or whereever) and it is 4 blocks away, and when they arrive it is the middle of the night. How did it take 6+ hours to go 4 blocks.

Yes, yes it adds to the suspense element, but in a stupid way in my opinion.
