True, a lot of cyclists are victims of drivers, but someone on a bike can do a lot of damage to an elderly or frail pedestrian.
Better question, why are the Peds not staying in the right lane of the MUP so cyclist and runners can safely pass? Do you expect motorist in the other lane to honk every time they pass another vehicle?
Too often, peds become unpredictable when they are warned.
