When residents do not shovel snow from their sidewalks, other people are inclined to walk in the street.
During the warmer part of the year, I can't understand why teens choose to walk in the exact middle of the street even though sidewalks exist.
Based on the tread title, I thought this was going to be about something else. :)
In some cases, even when they're not covered with snow, it's more difficult/dangerous to walk on the sidewalk due to their poor condition. But if I'm walking in the street because of this, I make it a point to stay out of the way of traffic.
Done intentionally to grab attention. :laugh:
Even on the nicest of summer days, I see people using the street for sidewalks and wonder that there aren't more accidents.
One of the first things i noticed when we moved back to the area in 98....
Kids walking up and down the street instead of the sidewalks.
I can tell you in the years before we had been moving around the country alot. 4 different states in 5 years.
And we did not see kids walking in the street.....
