Would be great!

(ooooooh look a pig just flew past my window!)

It's ingrained in the cycling commuter brigade that it's perfectly ok to run lights, ignore zebra crossings and to get exceptionally vocal with anyone who calls them out on it and will continue to be that way because if ANY vehicle is involved in an accident with a cycle then they are automatically blamed and the cyclists know this and take the P.

Treat it like 'No Insurance' - pull them over, crush the bike and give them points on the driving licence for it. That would significantly cut down the issues.
