Not only pedestrians, but cyclists as well.
I had an incident last year when some 70yr old dude in his golf cart was yelling at me, while I was riding on a marked bicycle lane that I should get the f' off the sidewalk as these are for golf carts only! It right next to a golf course, maybe that's why he was stating that claim.

I was so baffled, astonished and bewildered that I wasn't able to say a word. I just kept on riding with my jaw dropped on the top tube.
