Basic concepts
Explanation
Pedestrians have certain rules they must follow when walking on public roads. In towns and cities, they must walk on the sidewalk whenever possible. However, when there is no pedestrian area available or it is not practicable, pedestrians are allowed to walk on the shoulder.
- The shoulder is the lateral part of the road, located on the right and left, where motor vehicles should not circulate. It is a safe space for pedestrians when sidewalks are not available.

- It is important for pedestrians to use the shoulder to avoid walking on the roadway, where vehicles circulate and the risk of accidents is higher.
Therefore, in the absence of a pedestrian area, pedestrians can walk on the shoulder to ensure their safety and avoid traffic on the roadway.
