He is correct for Rhode Island. The state considers bike paths roadways and applies the roadway rules for pedestrians (same rules used in every other states that I know of for pedestrians on roadways without sidewalks). But I do not know of any other state that applies these rules for MUPs (formally called Bike Paths). The surrounding states to RI apply the standard MUP rules and will create conflicts with inter-state MUPs.
