Which part of "[1] that depends on where one is." do you have
difficulty understanding?

You (Hansen) had actually written:

"...*All* those cars and other motor vehicles with one or more wheels on the
pavement. If the police were as anti-motorist as the usual suspects claim
then they could make a lot of money by ticketing the owners of *all* these
vehicles".

[my emphasis]

Which part of "all" (iterated twice) do you have difficulty understanding in
your own writing?

No it isn't

*off* pavements 'for a change'. Actually driving along the pavement is 'for
a change'. The vaaaast majority of journeys are made along roads!

I checked the cyclists I saw in town yesterday. All were cycling
along the road, though a few used the pavement for a short period in
order to get to a parking place.

I do see cyclists using the pavements, but I see motorists using
them too and the scattering of motor vehicles on pavements shows
that many motorists use pavements while I'm not looking.

Theres a difference between driving/riding on the pavement and parking
there.
One may cause inconvenience, the other danger.
