Funny how virtually nobody does that. Why should the driver, on his own
property, give way to a pedestrian?


The pedestrian isn't on the motorist's propery. He's on the public highway
(the part reserved for pedestrians).


If there is a dropped kerb then the adjacent bit is shared, but the
driver has to giveway.
If there is no dropped kerb the driver isn't allowed there at all, even
if he has a drive.
