Would it not be a good idea for a person coming up behind a walker to ring their bell? And if they don't have one on their bike, get one?
Just curious if other walkers have had this experience.

I apologize for the jerk who did not warn you. There is always that one person who ruins it for the rest of us. I always slow down, ring my bell or shout a warning. I might add that many walkers have ear buds or headphones on so they never hear my warnings. If you are wearing ear phones, I suggest always walking on the left side facing traffic.
