It is illegal to drive on which of the following?

Driving on a sidewalk is illegal because sidewalks are designated for pedestrian use. They provide a safe space for individuals walking, running, or using mobility devices, separating them from vehicle traffic. When a vehicle drives on a sidewalk, it poses serious risks to pedestrians, who may not expect to encounter motor vehicles in that area. Traffic laws are designed to protect the safety of all road users, and driving on sidewalks undermines that safety.

In contrast, freeways, side streets, and residential driveways are intended for vehicle traffic under appropriate circumstances. Each of these road types has its own regulations regarding speed, right-of-way, and vehicle types allowed, but they are generally accessible for driving when obeying the respective laws and rules.
