Set a ridiculously high starting price.

The natural extension is a relaunch of 'Road' tax, and people with bigger cars who pay more such tax get their own special lanes.</p> <p><strong>The Miami Vice Way Code</strong><br /> Socks are banned, plimsolls encouraged, and any sleeves must be rolled up. Sunglasses and Hai Karate obligatory.</p> <p><strong>The Spice Way Code</strong><br /> Peppering road users with advice, such as 'give cyclists mace', and asking drivers not to cumin the bike lane. Aimed at spreading the clove.</p> <p><strong>The Splice Way Code</strong><br /> Separates road users.</p> <p><strong>The Dice Way Code</strong><br /> Meh, we're changing nothing, take your chances.</p> <p><strong>The Mice Way Code</strong><br /> Very similar to the Nice Way Code except drivers are encouraged to treat cyclists like rodent vermin. So pretty much identical in all respects to the Nice Way Code really. </p>
