Cutting Hedges and other Foliage

How many of you while walking the roads around your town have been injured or have come close to being injured by hedging or other foliage which has overgrown the boundary wall of a property which you are walking past?
Unlike rural dwellers, urban dwellers are not obliged to keep hedging etc. cut back within their property boundary.
Surely, it is obvious that keeping hedging and other foliage from injuring road users, particularly walkers, should be prioritised. Local councils need to have a look at introducing a bye-law on health and safety grounds in this regard.
