That is only if they had smart parents that taught them to.

Default MBNR has a bike/pedestrian trail

Much of Moultonborough Neck Road has a bike/pedestrian trail on both sides of the road. If someone is on that path, it shouldn't matter which side of the road they are on. Off that trail though, it is surprising how many walk with traffic rather than against it.

When the paths end, people just continue in the direction they were heading as opposed to cross a fairly busy, usually fast, road.

Who cares, anyway--drivers shouldn't be hitting pedestrians regardless of which way they're walking.

Default Poison Ivy

I will admit that there are a few spots along the lower portion of the Neck Road where I have walked on the wrong side because of the enormous patches of poison ivy along the shoulder. I am aware of the fact that it's the wrong side, but as someone who gets poison ivy from even the slightest exposure, I'd rather walk on the wrong side than take the chance. Just last night I walked on the wrong side for about 50 yards to avoid where someone had mowed over a patch of poison ivy and shot the clippings into the road and shoulder.
