? Can a sidewalk be
private property?
In most countries, pedestrians are advised to walk facing the oncoming traffic, which means walking on the left side of the road (in countries where vehicles travel on the right lane). The rationale behind this recommendation is to allow pedestrians to see approaching vehicles and be more aware of their surroundings. By facing oncoming traffic, pedestrians can make eye contact with drivers, assess the distance and speed of vehicles, and react accordingly to ensure their safety.
Walking on the left side of the road also provides a better opportunity to step off the road or take evasive action if needed, as pedestrians can move away from approaching vehicles.
However, it's important to note that road rules and pedestrian practices may vary between countries and regions. For example, some countries drive on the right side of the road, and pedestrians may be advised to walk on the right side accordingly.
To ensure your safety as a pedestrian, it's always a good idea to familiarize yourself with the local road rules and pedestrian regulations in the area you are in. Follow designated pedestrian paths or sidewalks whenever available and exercise caution when walking on or near roadways.
