You can't really run like you want to for fear of getting your car run over or getting in a crash and hurting someone. I think it's safe to say many people would get annoyed. Yes, it's an unlikely scenario, but you get the point.

I don't have anything against running at skateparks. I think it would be fun. But I do see why the skateboarders might get a little upset in certain situations, that's all.
