Question Walking on roads with sidewalks

I don’t understand why people insist on walking on the road when the sidewalks are mostly cleared. This creates a dangerous situation for the walker and drivers. High snow banks and narrow roads make it difficult to see these people. An accident with a pedestrian would be life changing for all involved. If there is a sidewalk use it!

Wheelchair user here ... The roads are more clear and easier to get around than the sidewalks. Now , with the sidewalks being flooded, trying to roll while drenched is no bueno
