industry, if possible, backed by law making it compulsory for bike
riders,
or bikes, to be registered in a way that makes it self-funding. The
simpler, the better.

Is car registration self-funding does anyone know?

Self funding in what sense ? The total fees they charge
do more than pay for the cost of all those shinybums.

What about driver licencing?

It isn't really feasible to separate the cost of rego and
drivers licensing except with the license test stuff.

after all this is closer to that than it is to rego.

What ?

At what age does a rider need to ahve a paid licence?

Should there be high penalties for hitting a licenced cyclist given
they would now have a "right to the road" many think they do not now
have?
