I have a Lidl, an Intermarché and another national store where I live.
Besides the Intermarché, that is an old store that hasn’t seen upgrades or renewals since ever, the two other stores have dedicated access for pedestrians and vehicles.
The Lidl store even has a dedicated foot path you can use, through their garden, to access the grounds but you can, safely, enter through the vehicle entrance: there is a pedestrian cross and a pedestrian access there.
The other store has a vehicle exclusive access, directly from the road. Yet it still has a pedestrian cross on it (connects to a sidewalk on both sides) and has pedestrians access. But it also has dedicated pedestrian accesses built.
I recognize the situation in the comic is real but mostly for older stores. And even those are not exempt of being forced to create or improve accesses to pedestrians.
