Full text
453. Where there is no sidewalk bordering a roadway, a pedestrian must walk along the side of the roadway or on the shoulder and in the direction opposite to that of vehicular traffic after ascertaining that he can do so in safety.
Despite the first paragraph, a pedestrian may walk in the same direction as traffic to avoid crossing the roadway more than once over a short distance or to walk on the lighted side of the public highway or the side where the shoulder is wider, after making sure it can be done safely.
