This is a safety reminder regarding walking or running in the multi-purpose lane of our roadways. These lanes are being shared with wheeled vehicles, such as golf cars and bicycles, which have the right-of-way. Pedestrians in them do not have the right-of-way and jeopardize themselves and these vehicles when they fail to yield to them. You are urged to use the sidewalks where they exist instead of the multi-purpose lanes. If you choose to walk or run in these lanes, please be aware of this and yield to any of these vehicles. Yield means to “give way to” either a golf car or bicycle—both for your protection and that of the vehicle. For your information, the applicable POA rule regarding this is given below:
4.38 “Pedestrians using designated multi-purpose lanes on Quail Creek roadways must always face oncoming traffic and yield to oncoming golf carts and bicycles.”
