Rofl......are you serious? I suppose you want to charge pedestrians for walking on the sidewalk too, register them and charge extra for walking across a roadway?
Roads are there for the public, and bicycles are quite suited to riding on them, there wouldnt need to be any traffic improvement fees if more people rode them. Why dont you take advantage of no charge transport?
have you considered the logistics or registering every pushbike that may be used on the roads in this country? How many pushbikes per household. Rego stickers and number plates, annual fees, all for your 12 year old that rides to school on one? of course, its very important to be able to get the rego on bicycles that are used for dangerous crimes such as bank robbery etc.
