Perhaps, but a shopping cart or multiple people on that piece of concrete would distribute the weight (load) far more than a single fatty stepping on it. The PSI from the ball of her foot (a single footstep) would be huge.

Yes, good point, the pressure would be greater. Still, I think that should fall within the acceptable safety tolerances of public sidewalks, unless she was really far over 300 lbs.
