This is also why one should ALWAYS walk facing traffic, so you can see and jump, walk, move (fall) out of the way.

Agree I was making general observations of what I see on MMP. I can tell you when I walk I make sure I’m out of any traffic safu. I won’t hesitate to get way off the MMP or out of diamonds lanes. I also stop when in golf cart if there is any change a cart, a person or person’s, and cart don’t meet all at same time.

But, the most outrageous situation I was in when 4 were walking the MMP blocking both lanes. I stopped and waited for them to pass and they looked at me like I was in there road. Those are the privilege ones.
