I do some inline skating in foot traffic areas and the speed disparity is still dangerous - motor free. I try to be incredibly polite and courteous of the pedestrian traffic because I don't want skating to be banned, but there are plenty of folks out there that just DGAF about anyone other than themselves and/or haven't even considered that someone else may have a different perspective. The problem is that there are all sorts of different forms of transport these days (with a few levels of speed differential), but the infrastructure is primarly designed around cars. Even bicycle paths and lanes are essentially subservient, and often poorly thought-out additions, to car infrastructure.
