The only thing that will work is proper law enforcement.

Meh. It seems like it should help, certainly enforcing the helmet law, but I'm not certain.

My vote would be for more comprehensive compulsory driver training. The things I've seen...

I just did my five-year license renewals (auto and motorcycle) this week, and a new requirement is that everyone has to watch a 1-hour "safety" video. It was a bit of a joke, and amazingly the participants in the video didn't wear seat-belts.

On the plus side, recent surveys indicate that only 50% of the people believe karma and good luck are responsible for road safety, down from 75% just a few years ago.
