No, of course not. Every MILLIMETER of sidewalk should be individually assessed, with a law individually written to govern each and every one. After all, nothing leads to predictably safe behavior in potentially dangerous situations like INCONSISTENCY.
Traffic laws are in fact generally the same across the country, I see no reason this should be any different. And you seem to be missing my main point. What we need to accomplish is SAFE ROADWAYS for bikers, clearly marked properly set up bike lanes, etc.
