Pedestrians should only walk contraflow when on the _shoulder_ of a roadway. Peds should NEVER walk contraflow on a MUP or in a traffic lane (e.g. peds that think marked bike lanes are sidewalks or shoulders). Walking contraflow on a MUP or, even worse, jogging contraflow in a marked bike lane (as I often see around here) is extremely dangerous.
