Why is it that when people walk, they look down alot - even in very paved?

areas that you don't have to worry about debris or tripping? I notice people put their heads down when walking. Thoughts?

    They don't know how to walk properly. There is more chance you will run into a wall or a person when you look down like that.

    Things can fall in your path or jump out in front of you, it's just something we do without thinking to protect ourselves from harm.
