Interesting reading.  However, you said “pedestrians have a legal right to walk on the road.”  Legal rights are set forth in statutes, regulations, or sometimes cases.

Not the pp but actually all rights are not set forth in statutes regs and cases.  otherwise you'd have them for everything...the right to breath fresh air, to skip along the sidewalk, to wave hello...everything.  It's actually the opposite.  Theres an assumption that you have a right to do things unless it's specifically prohibited by statute, regs, or sometimes cases.  [/quote]

Actually these are usually spelled out.  I am familiar with Florida, so I will cite here and you can see there is a clear pedestrian restriction:

Here is an article that references VA:
