How about enforcing laws against cyclists that constantly break traffic laws?

  Glad you are asking, these are enforced in Germany as well. I personally witnessed police waiting behind traffic lights to catch cyclists running a red light, stopping cyclists who ride on a pedestrian-only path and checking for proper lights at night. I think they also check for drunken riders, although I have never witnessed that personally. Cyclists get fined, and they can even loose their driving license (for cars). These checks are not too-frequent (neither are those for car drivers), but they exist.

  Sounds like road envy to me. I know plenty of cyclist that have fines over here. And read this, as it suggests sticking to the rules may be more dangerous for cyclists. http://www.theguardian.com/uk/2010/may/21/women-cyclists-most-accidents http://www.theguardian.com/uk/2010/may/21/women-cyclists-mos...

    The rules of the road are the rules of the road and--unless otherwise specified--are to be followed by cyclists and drivers. Period. No exceptions.
