"Persons that walk their bikes, motor bikes are equaled to pedestrians." Is the phrase ok?

pushing

Explanation:
I think 'push' is more appropriate than walk here. The whole sentence might be better as "People pushing their bikes or motorbikes are effectively/treated as pedestrians".

to push

Explanation:
The same idea of "pushing" except I'd like to offer a slightly different translation, with a different verb form, of the entire sentence:

People who push their bikes or motorbikes have the same right-of-way as pedestrians.
