You don’t see the slant in the sidewalk? The fucking pavers are uneven af as well. Have you ever ran on an uneven surface? Shit is prone to rolling your ankle. If you are older, probably fucks up your knees
I agree he is running on the wrong side and for safety should definitely run against traffic. Whether it’s illegal to do this really depends on the local and state laws, I think.
In some states, pedestrian sidewalks do not exist so the rules/laws are a bit unclear. Not sure where you live but in my area the sidewalks just abruptly end and leave you to enter the roadway or cross the road to get to another sidewalk which may or may not be protected by signal or paint (ie, unsafe af)
Lol you got guts for commenting that here and I respect that. Better to risk an ankle roll then to be hit by a crazy person on their phone while driving.
