In Boulder CO, they tried a really nice idea for a while: the carrot
rather than the stick.  For a month, police officers gave
presents to bicyclists who DID follow the rules!  This caused
a lot more good feeling and adherance than ticketing people.
They have also been known to give out speeding tickets, though....

As for passing cars on the right, in Boulder the law is that you
can pass all the cars stopped at a light except the last one.  This
avoids the danger that someone might suddenly turn right in front of
you.
