Given the opportunity, what Traffic Law would you introduce or reintroduce?

No question in my mind, I would reintroduce the once very familiar sign on UK roads: HALT AT MAJOR ROAD AHEAD

I’d make cyclists and horse riders pay tax and insurance.

Minimum speed limits on some roads and major fines for people who don't use the lanes correctly on motorways.

I was recently following a car on the M25 that was in outside lane with no traffic any of the other lanes. The worse part she was traveling and less than 45 mph

. If I had the powers I would have given here 5 points for each offence and a big fine.

Retake the test every 10 years.

60mph speed limiter on vans, stop them driving on motorways like they're playing 5 a side, and banned from the outside lane.
Anyone using a mobile in the front of a vehicle to be birched..bring back the birch for this purpose.
HGV's to use inside lane only, tough, but just enough of blocking lanes while crawling past each other.
Motorcycles to use bus lanes, should reduce the amount of times some moron closes the gap to stop us filtering.
LEDs on service vehicles and traffic lights replaced with normal bulbs, they are too intrusive at night.
Ladies and Gentlemen that have had their vehicles remapped to backfire on overrun made to stand infront of a 10000w PA with Albert Ayler having it large on his sax.
People that speed up when being overtaken so you can't pull back in without increasing speed, should be escorted to the next services and all the fuel removed from their vehicle.

How about more money for the police so that they have enough officers to actually enforce the existing ones?

I think a law shoul d be introduced to allow us to drive on whichever side of the road we feel moist comfortable

On a serious noite though I think a law similar to the German rule that would allow left turns at junctions even when lights are red would be useful

No parking on the footpath.
