Sure, it is easy to get most people to agree to these sort of
statements, but you can guarantee that most of them are thinking in
terms of _other_ people driving less, leaving the roads clearer for
their own "essential" journeys.

Its not the 'most' you are after. Its the minority. Look at the experience
in London. Its still a minority who are cycling -- but there are many more
people cycling and cycling is increasingly accepted as a quite reasonable
means of transport.

We cannot legislate for the terminally stupid and the terminally lazy -- let
them die young.
