Perhaps someone can help me with this. I am a bicyclist, but also a motorist. This is about runners. Often I observe people out running in the street, I assume for excersize or practicing for a marathon or triathlon or something. Many times they are running on the sidewalk. Many times they are running in the street, when a sidewalk is available. Many times they are running in the middle of the traffic lane, AGAINST the direction of the traffic, against the flow of traffic. One time I yelled out the window, that they are on the wrong side of the road. The man just laughed.

Is there something that I don't understand? Bicyclist and motorvehicles have the right to use the traffic lanes, but must follow the rules of the road. Why do some runners run on the wrong side of the road, in the traffic lane, with a smle like a Scientoligist-on-crack.
