Riding a bicycle on the sidewalk is illegal in almost every state and country. Riding a bicycle in the street is never illegal. I think you should learn the rules before you tell people that they should risk their lives for your convenience.
- dragonwriter 8y ago> Riding a bicycle on the sidewalk is illegal in almost every state It's illegal in 8 states; unclear in 18; even if it was illegal in all of those it would be a slim majority, not “almost every state”. https://bikeleague.org/content/bike-law-university-sidewalk-riding https://bikeleague.org/content/bike-law-university-sidewalk-...
- beatgammit 8y agoRiding a bicycle is illegal on some roads, especially the highway (unless it's the only reasonable road, such as though a canyon). That being said, far too many assume it's illegal to ride on the road, and "share the road" signs don't seem to effectively correct that misconception. I've even heard of drivers telling cyclists to ride on the sidewalk when they're already riding in a bike lane... That being said, and as others have stated, riding on the sidewalk is not illegal in many areas, though it's less safe in most.
