Easy: ban bicycles in all public places.

Sorted.

But that would remove your sole reason for living (whingeing about
cyclists). This could possibly set off severe depression.
You could of course resort to shouting at traffic or making *get off my
lawn* signs for other whingers.

It would also mean the 730 000 daily bicycle journeys in London would be made by car. Just imagine the gridlock.

Indeed and the extra air pollution.

Perhaps we should reverse Nugents' idea and ban non essential motor vehicles.
It has been long established on this group that motor taxes don't even cover the costs of motorway maintenance let alone the costs of the other roads motorists infest.

I have nothing against cars but I do object to assumption that 'the roads are for cars'.
Roads are for people, not machines.
