These are all bad ideas. Drivers do not want to kill people, even if it sometimes looks like they do. The phrase just adds to some cyclists' already irrational fears and promotes a them-and-us approach which fails every time.
Calling someone a moron is a surefire way of getting them to stop listening and, probably justifiably, telling you to fuck off, however valid your observations about their cycling might be.
Have you considered cycle training is at least polite but if they reply with 'Have* you* had cycle training?' then where does that leave most of the people dishing out the stickers and the unsolicited advice?
