Default Cyclist in accident drives off

So Paul, are you saying that a dog walker on the path has a 'duty of
care' to watch for cyclists moving faster than him, and to 'make way'
(for want of a better phrase) if one comes along? I'm only asking for
clarification here - if thats *not* your point then I do apologise and
would love your correction


No; assuming that the shared use path is wide enough to allow users to
pass each other safely then dogs should be kept close in and preferably
on the outside purely as a matter of consideration for others. In the
same way that the cyclists should slow down if needing to pass at all
closely.
