      In Chicago it’s because of 1 of 3 reasons:

      1. They are 12 or under.
      2. There isn’t any bike infrastructure and they are safer on the sidewalk.
      3. They’re a dick and ride on the sidewalk anyway in spite the very nice protected bike lanes that are right next to the sidewalk. This is the case 90% of the time and could be curbed with some education and enforcement, but that’ll never probably happen.
