I think most humans can be unpredictable at any given time. My experience is that areas like here in Southern California where a lot of us share a limited space it can be dangerous even if I am pedaling slowly. Which is why I no longer use multi use paths. I respect others and at times that is a one way deal. Not all humans are respectful and it only takes one to ruin a day of cycling. I have nearly been in a serious crash and it is not because I wasn’t being “respectful”.
