11 annoying things pedestrians must stop doing to each other

Please sign the dotted line.

C’MON GUYS, WALKING on the footpath is not that hard.

In case you find it slightly difficult, we propose this simple charter be signed and agreed to by all.

1. Keep up with the pace

Slow walkers PLEASE be aware of those walking behind you and keep in single file. There’s nothing worse on this planet than being stuck in a sandwich behind slow walks and in front of people trying to walk fast.

NOTHING.

2. Don’t expect double buggies to just jump out of your way

Just this once, you should overtake them or move aside. It’s for your own sake.

3. Don’t use a single buggy as a weapon

With the buggy, comes great responsibility. Don’t abuse it.

4. Maps are not made to be opened on a small path

Duck into a doorway, preferably one back in the 90s when big maps were actually a thing.

5. A dead stop may result in a dead person

Oh that’s fine, we wanted to trip over your heels anyway.

6. Let go of your partners hand for like ONE MINUTE if approaching others

God forbid the chain would be broken. Let’s not make this a game of Red Rover.

7. Be considerate of how many people are walking abreast

Don’t let it resort to this.

8. Don’t exit a shop and stand at the door pondering your next move

If you do, your next move is for us to crash into you.

9. Go to your right if you’re about to collide

Most people are right handed, so it’s simple logic. Never do the awkward dance again.

10. Chatting on street corners is strictly prohibited

Chat while you walk, or move aside. IT’S NOT THAT HARD.

11. Texting while walking is reserved for those who know how

It can be done. It’s not advised, but it can be done. Just don’t do it if you have absolutely no co-ordination.
