either we get full rights of the road with all the accompanying

and MUPs.
Just curious,
are you advocating then that bicycles have the same registration, Insurance, and tax requirements as motor vehicles too? That bicycle riders be required to pass a vision test and renew a license every few years, and have to take a "riding" test befire initial issuance of said license.
If all motorized vehicle laws must apply equally to bicycles, you have a lot of unpopular lobbying ahead of you.
Short of that, perhaps california's answer is the best, seems good to me anyway.
take care,
