I think the actual answer is to get some more police on the road and pay for them with punitive fines for serious offences. Driving without insurance - should be a couple of thousand fine straight away. Ditto yabbering on a mobile, or being over the limit (drugs or drink). 100 quid for a busted headlight - half the cars around here drive around with half their lights out - no one cares. The law is hardly enforced and if it is, it's a silly little fine, reduced if you pay up quick.
