Pedestrian

A Pedestrian is a person traveling on foot, whether walking or running, in an area designated for public travel, such as a road, sidewalk, or crosswalk.

The term typically refers to someone not operating a vehicle, bicycle, or other form of transportation beyond their own two feet.

It can also be used metaphorically to describe something as lacking inspiration or excitement; commonplace and ordinary.
