On the multi-modal paths/trails ride your bike as you would on the road...tada! That's it. If you expect to be treated as you would on the road then use signals and stop at stop signs(many bicyclists do not).

Scooters that are road legal you will see on the multi-modal trails, but legally they aren't allowed.

Bicycles(per Florida law)are allowed on sidewalks, but pedestrians have the right of way on sidewalks.

To all you walkers...if there is a sidewalk present(right or left side of the roadway)you must use it per Florida law. So if you hear someone holler to get on the walk now you know why. :-)
