I think that before we make any changes to existing laws/policies/etc we might see a decent result by starting to enforce the ones we have at the moment.
A big rise in (for example) motor-cycle riding traffic coppers who actively target anti-social road use by all road users would be nice to see.
This would be my response to many things of late, not just cycle-related issues. Press regulation, MP and lobbying hypocricy etc
At the lights in Balham last week I watched a PCSO, who happened to be standing on the corner, walk over to a driver of a big exec saloon who was parked up in the ASL and publically admonish him. It was beautiful to watch, and I am sure made a lot of nearby drivers think a bit more. Just a shame it happens so rarely, and that the PCSO was probably only standing there in order to bollock RLJers.
