I'd like to think they yield because it's the rule (law?) but I know 
that's not the case, at least on our local BLM land.  There are almost 
no signs to remind people.  I think hikers/walkers do it out of a sense 
of self preservation.  Our local bikers are getting better about at 
least slowing down and making eye contact but we still have more than I 
feel safe around who just speed right on by, oblivious to how that 
affects our horses.
