You are a vehicle, you must ride with the traffic as well as obeying all traffic laws.

I ride with the flow. Gives other motorists more time to notice / react to you. Going against traffic is illegal and dangerous

Never against traffic - easy way to get splatted without trying - although if you can try and take a BMW with you and make peoples life easier lol.

As someone else said - walk against traffic if you can - means they see you.
