Human Factors
In non-tower airport PRB; when exiting Runway 31 to Taxiway B; announced on CTAF intentions to exit runway; taxi on (Taxiway) B; cross Runway 1-19; then turn to Taxiway A. To do so; I had to turn my right hindquarters to the approach path of Runway 19; not realizing that a small plane was actually landing on Runway 19. I was unable to see the landing traffic from behind the right wing; and I never heard this plane on radio or made a radio contact. Thanks to prompt warning from a passenger; I was able to stop on Taxiway B short of the Runway 19. It was daytime; clear sky; and unrestricted visibility.
C172 reported his passenger alerted him to an aircraft landing on a runway he was preparing to taxi across.
