Honestly, if we had an automatic citation system in place for automobiles, I would probably support some kind of identification system be put in place to make it work for bikes as well. Perhaps there would be a way to make it voluntary and create an incentive which encouraged people to opt in, rather than making it a mandatory requirement? Maybe a modest tax credit if you ride your (tagged) bike more than X days per year? This way children and occasional users would still have an on-ramp to cycling that didn't have to start with a trip to the DMV. In any case, this isn't the world we live in, so it's all hypothetical at this point. In the short-to-medium term, the overwhelming danger on the road is from motorists.
