    I’d like to know why this was downvoted. Walking against the flow of traffic so you can see what’s coming is sensible advice.

      Walking maybe, but bicycles that do this are morons. It’s been proven over and over that it’s unsafe yet they continue doing it — is no one curious about “hey I don’t know if that’s safe, I should check online?”

            It may not have been your intention, but if you re-read the thread, you’ll see that you’re seemingly arguing for downvoting the advice of walking against the flow of traffic by bringing up bikes for no reason.

            Bringing up bikes changes the point as bikes and pedestrians have different road use rules
