Do Not Walk On Bike Lanes

Source: https://ontransport.files.wordpress.com/

Just like any place in the world with bike lanes, they are there for bikers only. Riding on the sidewalk is dangerous to cyclists, too, because they could get hit by turning cars when they move from the sidewalk to the road. Fortunately, riding on the sidewalk drops when bike lanes are available. Bike lanes make it safer for both pedestrians and cyclists. While bikes lanes keep cyclists off sidewalks, sidewalks should keep pedestrians off bike lanes. Bike lanes are usually located on roads that also have sidewalks, so use the sidewalks. It’s not difficult to comprehend, so don’t make the mistake of walking along bike lanes or standing in them. You will surely get insulted by those the lanes were meant for, or worse, get bumped by a speeding bicycle rider whose work involves traversing these lanes daily.
