I'm not sure what you're saying. I was just linking an article about states and their laws about sidewalk riding. What caught my eye was the last paragraph, which applies regardless if you're riding on a sidewalk, bikelane, bikepath or the road. I guess it caught my eye because around my area I'm always having to look out for pedestrians and I ride in the road.

You’ll likely encounter pedestrians who break the rules. But even if you have the right of way, it’s your legal duty to prevent a collision if possible.
