Did they even hear my bell, my approach, or my “good morning” greeting?

Wasn’t it common practice to walk facing oncoming traffic? The cyclist (or golf car driver) and the pedestrian can each see the other’s approach. The pedestrian can be sure that the approaching ‘vehicle’ is giving them ample clearance.

I think that MMPs have room for everyone that chooses to use them.
Recently on two occasions I have seen a street legal motorized scooter on the MMP. The scooter had a license plate, drove on Morse Blvd then entered the MMP. I ride my bicycle almost daily in TV, but am getting to point where I try to avoid the MMP. Golf carts...please slow down.
