pedestrians IS the plural of pedestrian.
An appropriate collective noun for a group of pedestrians is a crowd of pedestrians.
In the US - it greatly depends on the state and how the pedestrian laws are written for that state. GENERALLY - a pedestrian crossing at a MARKED crosswalk, and in conformance with any pedestrian signals or traffic lights, will legally have the right-of-way, but you DO have the responsibility to make sure you can do it in a safe manner.
There really is no such thing as a "bio pedestrian," so the answer would have to be no.
"Ped" means "foot," so a pedestrian is someone who is walking.
No, pedestrians should not be capitalized. If it was part of a title, then yes, for example:In the play, Don't Hit the Pedestrian, comics provided satire about modern stupidities of jaywalkers.
It is a motorist's duty NOT to hit a pedestrian. It is a motorist's duty to drive at a speed where he can stop so as not to hit something in front of him. Thus the point is moot - if a pedestrian is "in the road" you should not hit him/her - you stop and give way. Imagine - "your honor I had the right of way so I drove the pedestrian down".

If there is no pathway, the pedestrian should walk facingthe oncoming traffic.i.e in India pedestrians should walk on the right hand side of the road.
Pedestrians as a term have never been changed to pedos as a nickname. This suggests that a pedestrian is linked to unacceptable behavior and so is not likely to have been accepted in common parlance.
You must yield right of way to pedestrians period. Pedestrians have the right of way all the time. They are frequently stupid if they take it. It is frequently impossible for drivers to see them in time and stop if they step out in front of cars. Still, if you see one, you have to give the pedestrian the right of way! You are not allowed to deliberately hit a pedestrian.
