Moreover, what about activities such as listening to music while you drive; having a hot coffee; or smoking a cigarette -- those should be much harder on a bike (some of them, quite awkward and not really environmental-friendly. Would those 'pleasures' have to be regulated? "

" It's the biggest challenge. I know how much healthier/fitter I am for commuting on a bike and not in a car. I also know how much less stressful cycling is than commuting in a car. But getting that message through to other people is a challenge. I don't expect to see a wholesale migration onto bikes, but with the right backing, planning, communication etc. and with help from employers etc., a steady, gradual increase in the use of cycling is very possible. We're not a country prone to revolutions - what we're looking to do here is encourage a steady evolution in our commuting habits – one which has already begun. "
