What if bicyclists were human too?

What would we do if traffic engineers and urban planners operated under a law that said that their spouses/partners and their children had to use bikes in their cities and towns at least half the time?
What if we cared about encouraging non-polluting, healthful transit that doesn’t require an Army to obtain the fuel?
One answer to those questions probably looks like this (separated bike lanes):

I think anyone who works in transportation planning should be required to ride public transport and to ride a bike at least once a week or if that’s to intense they should be required as part of the an entry requirement to ride a bike for one month and to take public transport for one month.
I think that would help in creating solutions that will not kill cyclist and leave people who take public transport waiting for 45 minutes for a bus.
