I have come across this situation three times in the last two weeks and am completely puzzled about this. In all three cases they were walking side by side facing the traffic. The sidewalk was right next to them which was ample to walk on side by side. The last time I could not go around them as traffic would not allow me to move over into the oncoming traffic. I had to come to a complete stop and the couple simply walked around my cart and continued down the cart path on the side of the street. They did not even make an effort to step up on the sidewalk. I am sorry to say I felt it necessary to point out to them the sidewalk was right there for their use. The "Gentleman" made some comment which I did not understand. I do not think it was nice. I would really like to understand why I am seeing an increase in this type stupidly when the sidewalk is right there.
