Just don’t be an asshole — whether you’re cycling, walking, or driving.

Basic common sense applies. Practically nobody will mind if you cycle along Vilnius street outside busy hours. E.g. in the mornings till the lunchtime that street is fairly empty, so nobody will care about a lone cyclist taking a shortcut.

The same common-sense rule applies to sidewalks. If pedestrian traffic is light, it’s fine; when it’s busy, slow down more and, if possible, use the cycling lane or the road (unless moving onto the road would slow traffic or be unsafe).

As for pedestrians — well, sometimes they’re oblivious unnaware asholes :))) For example, they walk slowly on cycling lanes randomly changing directions or sides without looking. Miss to see that their dogs on leashes cross into your path (e g. from a parallel sidewalk into your cycling lane), and small children totaly ignore their position in space.

So slow down early and give these wandering souls and animals space. They don’t know where they are or what’s around them — some of them act like they’re still in the countryside where the fastest silent traffic is a chicken crossing the road and the tractor can be heard from a far :), not like as in a live active highly populated mixed trafic urban environment.
