Sec. 18-165. Pedestrians not to use streets except when necessary;
keeping to left; soliciting rides.[306]
Pedestrians shall not use the streets, other than the sidewalk
thereof, for travel, except when necessary to do so because
of the absence of sidewalks, reasonably suitable and
passable for their use, in which case, if they walk upon the
hard surface, or the main-traveled portion of the roadway,
they shall keep to the extreme left side of edge thereof, or
where the shoulders of the street are of sufficient width to
permit, they may walk on either shoulder thereof.
Pedestrians shall not stand or stop in any roadway or street
for the purpose of soliciting rides. (Code 1959, § 18-165.)
