And thats the truth. Maybe we should carry the relevant sections of the vehicle code with us. But no, I don't think a roadside legal discussion is likely to be fruitful.
Actually, in PA we are allowed on sidewalks as long as it is not in a business district. No idea why, maybe to let kids ride on the sidewalks in their neighborhoods.
For a while, I had considered carrying a summary of the applicable laws, but I agree, the people who yell at riders probably aren't interested in what the law is, they are interested more in what they think is right...
