You walk against the traffic. That means you walk on the side of the road where all the cars coming are facing you

You ride your bike and scooters with traffic that means you’re going the same direction as the cars

It is so crazy how many people and how many children are doing this wrong and how unsafe it is.

Please teach your children the correct way to walk and ride!! This was basic knowledge my father taught me from when I was a child.

It scares me that the law for bikes and scooters is not same as for pedestrians.
I feel it’s harder to notice bikes and scooters riding alongside you to your right, rather than those coming towards you.
So for example, if someone is making a right turn, they may ch”v not notice that there is a bike riding along them on the shoulder that will be in their path as they turn..is it clear?
Even aside from that-anyone walking, scootering or biking is in a more vulnerable position than in a car; so they really need the advantage of seeing traffic driving towards them; that’s my take, anyway.

Yesss!
Another thing… do people not know how 4 way stop signs work??
You don’t take turns one at a time. The opposites go at the same time. Sometimes I feel like Lakewood traffic would be cleared if people used 4 way stop signs correctly, allowed left turns every other, and knew right of way

It is according to the drivers Ed I took when I got my license
When the person across from you goes, the. You have right of way unless they are making a left turn
Of course the first to arrive goes, that goes without saying. But when they go, you go

Only if you both get there at the same
Time. 4 way stop signs are essentially first come first serve. The rest of the rules are when multiple
People stop at the line at the same time.

Bikes and scooters are moving object so if they collide with a vehicle moving in the opposite direction the impact is much stronger than If they collide while traveling in the same direction
