@William - all am saying is these ideas look good on paper, but behavioural change has all to do with behaviour and not legislation

Okech , I think William is still on behavioral change only that he has gone further to suggest a process of conditioning. Methinks conditioning in such small doses will work better in the long run than a big bang changeover of rules and penalties. Does it surprise you that despite the dangers associated with certain vices people cant stop indulging? It is because logic or threats cannot overcome a long-term conditioning.

I like the idea about insurance getting dearer and dearer for the bad driver, while getting cheaper and cheaper for the good driver.

And how about a simple computer game, simulating a real local driving environment. The game rewards you depending on how well you drive. Make it popular via local media, give it away for free to kids and adults alike. After a while we will all be driving less like we on NFS or Grand Theft Auto.
