That's the problem. As a pedestrian, I've damned near been run over multiple times by bicyclists on the sidewalk riding in both directions, erratically, on their phones, riding like a tour de France wannabe, etc. Etc. Seriously, it's a huge problem, not just confined to one segment of the population.
