## Question
When there are white lines and bicycle markings on a sidewalk, pedestrians must avoid walking in the designated area at all times.

## Correct answer
False

## Explanation
Section 2 of the text states that pedestrians "should avoid the designated area as much as possible." The phrase "as much as possible" indicates this is an effort requirement, not an absolute obligation. The expression "at all times" is incorrect.
