I just see the current system as lacking in resources...  We all do what we 
can do with the time we have to do it...

Edcuation on a large scale of all road users about basic vehicular skills 
would great but I just don't see it happening.  

My dream is a bit smaller these days..  Teach cyclists to ride in a 
reasonable, law abiding manner and members of the road community will expect cyclists 
to ride in a reasonable, law abiding manner.  

As it is,  I think most motorists, me included, have no expectations of 
reasonable behavior from someone on a bicycle and so treat cyclists as "loose 
cannons" that just might do anything.
