vehicle road use tax
No, it's not because you pay it whether you use the roads or not even if your vehicle is *off* the road (unless you SORN) and you don't pay for how much you use the roads.
It is a tax on your ownership of a vehicle, pure and simple.

You want to use the road, you pay the tax or you can't. That is road tax. You don't use your vehicle on the road you don't have to pay it. If you don't intend to use the road you declare sorn, you don't declare sorn then you intend to use the road. not tax on owning the vehicle as you can own the vehicle and not use the road.
Opinions are like A**holes, Everyone has one. Some people seem to have more than one though which is a bit odd.
