    There have been a few spoofs about that chdot has mentioned, so how about...

    The Vanilla Ice Way Code
    "Alright stop, collaborate and listen" seems like a pretty good opening gambit...

    The Price Way Code
    An alternative motorist lead code that allows you to use the roads if you pay for them. The natural extension is a relaunch of 'Road' tax, and people with bigger cars who pay more such tax get their own special lanes.

    The Miami Vice Way Code
    Socks are banned, plimsolls encouraged, and any sleeves must be rolled up. Sunglasses and Hai Karate obligatory.

    The Spice Way Code
    Peppering road users with advice, such as 'give cyclists mace', and asking drivers not to cumin the bike lane. Aimed at spreading the clove.

    The Splice Way Code
    Separates road users.

    The Dice Way Code
    Meh, we're changing nothing, take your chances.

    The Mice Way Code
    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.

    Surely the first one is "Nice, nice, baby..." Dum-dum-dum-dee-dum-dum, dum-dum-dum-dum-duh-duh-dee-dum, plink-plonk, "Nice, nice, baby", etc.

    Oh, while we're in that era of pop culture, the "Yes Way Code":

    Does that lead us into 'Just Say No'?

    You might be thinking of cleave rather than splice.

    Nice Whey Code

    Aimed at reducing 'roid rage among gym users by encouraging smaller fitness enthusiasts to give the big fella their protein shake.

    Nice Fay Code

    Some giant gorillas get really annoyed when you escape from them in New York, so be sure to stay in your designated Flee and Scream lanes. When a nice motorist inevitably parks there and hems you in, the vast simian will recapture you without so much as a chestbeat.

    Nice Way Ode

    Using the latest in DNA sampling, this £672,000 initiative(match-funded by Sustrans) has traced William McGonigal's decendents and commissioned charmingly bad road safety verses from them.

    Scheisse Way Code

    Same as the real one.

    Nice Fey Code
    A vague, weak and ineffectual campaign that fails to get its point across.

    Oh.

    The Howard's Way Code
    A hard-hitting water safety campaign based on the personal and professional lives of the wealthy yachting and business communities in the fictional town of Tarrant on the South Coast of England.

    The eBay Code
    Try to fob off all your unwanted and worn out road safety advice on a reluctant public using bad graphics and misleading descriptions. Set a ridiculously high starting price. Get all defensive and petulant if there's any negative feedback.
