I find even clearly marked shared paths to be troublesome. I use one to get to and from the station, and if there are pedestrians I will slow down almost to a stop. Despite that I often get glares from said pedestrians, as if to say 'get off the (shared) pavement'. Or if approaching from behind I ring the bell and get the same response, unless they're wearing headphones of course, in which case I just get ignored.
