If I plan to be travelling faster than 20 kmphr I am on the streets.

Pedestrians are much more erratic than cars and would hate to be in a messy cyclist\pedestrian accident at 30 kmphr. Travelling at high speeds on a pathway is dangerous for myself and the pedestrian, whereas driving at relatively low speeds on a street is more just dangerous for myself, with more minor damage potential for vehichles but would also results in losses in overall efficiency of the road system.
