  • Trail: Slow down, Passing
  • Sidewalk: Slow down, Passing

The U.S., unlike many other countries, has the cyclist on the same side as the pedestrian. This is clearly wrong. If a lycra clad 30mph cyclist is approaching me, head down to reduce wind resistance, I, as a walker, want to see that he/she has seen me. I should not have to walk looking over my shoulder all the time. As I say, I want to see the whites of the eyes of any cyclist that is going to hit me. How America got this wrong beats me.
