Default Re: Walking on streets!

Downeaster - I'm sure that Fumar will produce the link but think about it for a minute.

On the street who has the right of way? A car or a pedestrian? The answer is the car unless the pedestrian is within the marked crossing lane.

On a golf cart lane on the street who has the right of way? I would think it would the cart since that is what the lane is designed for.

On a multi modal path I would think the order is 1. cart. 2. bike 3. pedestrian (walking, jogging or roller blading etc.). I know that on bike paths up here in MA the pedestrian is supposed to walk on the left of the path facing the bikes and they must yield to bikes.
