The latter will exclude pedestrians as well and the former may not be correct for publicly owned paths, even if in reality only the people living there will use them (because they are dead ends). In absence of physical barriers and signage it can be difficult to determine the status, also because the people living there may have an interest to make it seem it is their property. I would generally tend towards "is public" unless it is recognizable it is not (or you know for sure). E.g. I once have discovered a private gate blocking the access to an alley leading to the river in Berlin Köpenik (former old village, now incorporated, in the east of Berlin), which wasn't actually legitimate, as the alley was public, but the neighbouring residents had set it up to improve their privacy ;-) Cheers, Martin
