Just to be clear, as a minimal user of pedestrian infrastructure, I am still strongly in support of the city taking over... but thought of this issue when I was stuck behind a snow plow while driving yesterday.
In Montreal the sidewalk plows can be sort of scary. It's a legit question. But the sidewalk plow drivers are also Montreal drivers.
Oh, I agree it's scary and intimidating, but that is only the perception, I've never experienced an actual problem, and I don't think injuries are common at all.
I have literally had more bad experiences with cars driving on sidewalks.
