I broadly agree with everything you have written Will, I suppose my main point is that whilst the bulk of the effort has been made as you have said it would still take a considerable push to make society as a whole accept a total ban.
We therefore get into the realm of diminishing returns, with millions spent on advertising campaigns and enforcement in equal measure.
And at this point we have to put a value on our efforts- for example if we spend 100 million on "Project Zero" and save 100 lives then great, that's 100 lives saved.
However if we spend that 100 million on, say, vigorous seizure and destruction of un-MOT'd cars and the vehicles of uninsured unlicenced drivers and save 1,000 lives then that is better value for money, to use a crude term when it comes to saving lives.
