I live in the Deep South, where I've gotten around on foot, on a bicycle, and by car. It's clear that some drivers see me as a nuisance when I'm walking, but I don't really see that as my problem.

That doesn't mean that pedestrians, cyclists, or regulators should necessarily defer to their wishes.
