Even ignoring the fact that sidewalks end at every intersection and the potholes others mention, the relative speed difference is too large. Pedestrian: 5km/hour, cyclist (conservative) 15km/hour. For cars inside big cities 30km/hour seems reasonable (https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/plugged-in/cities-where-it-s-faster-to-walk-than-drive/ https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/plugged-in/cities-where... claims 19km/hour in inner London).
