As-is there are already more than enough reasons for Driver Education and Driver Training reforms; drivers do not visually key on cyclists when they see them because they're not *trained* to 'see' them, which is why there are problems. Also the particular flavor of 'road rage' that involves cyclsts '''being in the way''' needs to be detected and those drivers either reformed or removed from the roads as their attitude and behavior is unacceptable.
Meanwhile *cyclists* need to be better educated and trained, as enough of them don't seem to understand that they're expected to understand and obey the same Rules Of The Road as motor vehicles, which also precipitates problems. Recalcitrant riders likewise need to be dealt with by law enforcement and the courts.
But understand this: bicycles are *never* going to go away, and attempting to ban them from public roads always fails and always will.
Attempts to force licensing of them always fails as well and always will.
Don't waste your time fighting a flood with a broom. Bicycles on publc roads are a long-established fact-of-life that isn't going away. If you want to be a civil engineer specializing in transportation infrastructure, that's great, all for it, but work to *integrate* motor vehicle traffic and bicycle traffic better, not *exclude* or *punish* cyclists for existing. The push-back you'll get will ruin your career.
