road user
Someone traveling streets
A road user is anyone who uses a road—drivers, cyclists, pedestrians, motorcyclists.
The term appears most often in traffic law, safety campaigns, and discussions of infrastructure: The new regulations protect vulnerable road users like cyclists and pedestrians.
It frames roads as shared spaces rather than the exclusive domain of motorists.
