Road culture is the way in which "how human beings live, feel, think and act in, from and for the daily lives of spaces of mobilization and movement",[6] which includes sidewalks, roads, walks and pedestrian crossings, cycle paths, public parks, squares, etc. That is, it is the way of proceeding when interacting on public roads, which should be based on respect and courtesy, among other citizen values. Every community or society "has its own road culture", which is neither good nor bad in itself, but capable of being perfected.[6]
