Whats wrong with walking on the grass? It always blows my mind people choose to walk in the road, as close to vehicles as possible, rather than choose the clearly safer option and walk on the grass.
I’m genuinely curious why so many people are afraid of the grass, fuck, ill walk in the weeds/trees before I walk on the side of a road.
The road isn’t a better option but issues with grass in residential areas:
Tree roots and other trip hazards
People parking their 5 giant SUVs and pickup trucks on them (this can happen on sidewalks too, but it’s often worse)
Dog shit that is less visible
Road design is usually more hostile when there aren’t sidewalks since they don’t even consider the existence of pedestrians
Sometimes it’s not grass so much as mud, particularly when flooding has occurred recently (which has gotten more common as climate change has advanced).
Running on a sidewalk (or road) is better for reducing injury despite grass feeling softer (since it’s more uneven).
And on the larger sidewalks you can ride bikes on them relatively safely.
Agreed with preferring to walk on grass than the road, but the grass here is thick, uneven, and patchy. Very easy to trip or get stuck going through a section that hasn’t been mowed in months.
If they had instead just made a sidewalk, things would be much easier. Especially in the areas that have sidewalk ramps that lead to nothing but grass. Laziness.
Technology is not mature yet, we’ll need another 10 years til we could make those work.
Just let Elon Musk handle it, it will be ready in two year tops. Perpetually two years away.
He’ll get two miles of underground sidewalks put in during four of those two years.
And 6 years after starting his two year project it’ll go bankrupt because no one is paying to use his underground sidewalk service.

Looking around the infrastructure of Texas, it’s gonna be a whole lot longer than 10 years if they decide to make anything sidewalk safe.
Better get used to walking on grass if you choose to walk somewhere here.
