Peds don't share roads like bikes. When I'm cruising on my road bike I'm literally feet away from cars while traveling at a decent clip like 15mph.

Pedestrians are on a sidewalk often with parked cars between them and the threat of tons of steel at velocity.

Scooters or anything going 15mph should not be on a sidewalk.

That's novel of you to try to solve this problem by "thinking", the true sign of a great programmer. Yet here we are and the statistics show plenty of head injuries for pedestrians, and the folly of your thought naturally.

Is there a word for this? Theorizesplaining?
