Lemme guess... traffic lights, too many motorcycles, and buses? There was something "wrong" with your cookies cache or IP. Google just straight fucks with you if it sees network traffic it doesn't like.

I think there's a tampermonkey script that skips the "loading" time. It's jarring but it works.
