Unless something changed recently I don't think this is true of the UK. You can't ride anything under 125CC on a UK motorway and cycling/walking is illegal. Maybe you mean dual carriageways?
- Lio 3y agoI don’t think the comment is about riding on the motorway, which as you say is illegal, but to the side next to the motorway on an adjacent path.
- vanilla_nut 3y agoIndeed. Sidewalks (and on large roads, cycle/ped shared paths) are incredibly common in the UK. Not everywhere, of course. But considering the fact that even in US city centres you frequently can't find a sidewalk, it's a large difference. Just a lot easier to navigate places on foot, even if it's not always pleasant to be 10 feet from a motorway on a walk.
