I find that a minority, when hearing that, instinctively take a step left before realizing that they need to move to the right.

    What would you call a paved surface that is dedicated to non-car traffic?

      Pavement? Path? Footpath? Biking path?

      In my language we use the literal translation of “road” also for paved surfaces not meant for cars. We use “walking-road” to emphasise the fact when it’s in a place where it might be confused for a car-road. We also have “bike-roads” that are paved/marked like a road but dedicated for bikes only.

      I think I just immediately associated “trail” with “hiking trail” or “bike trail” which I associate with more rugged terrain and not paved paths.
