+1, in Germany or Italy you will hardly find any place where a pedestrian can't pass but a cyclist can. There will be either a combined or segregated foot/cycleway instead of a bicycles only cycleway. On the contrary there are much more places where pedestrians get precedence over cyclists (e.g. narrow spots will most probably get something like "cyclists dismount!")
