What was all that about?
Couple of things annoy me about road tax, I bought my used 2002 VW in 2005 just before they introduced the new system. And what did they do, they introduced it retrospectively. So I bought an ordinary car, knowing how much it would cost me to buy a tax disc, then they reworked the road tax system and wacked my tax right up. How can that be fair?
Then I've got my bike, of which again I have to pay road tax if I wanna use it. Funny thing is I can only use one at a time, so why am I paying road tax twice over, same for third party insurance.
Scrap The Road Tax and stick it on fuel. That way the more you use, the more you pay. Fair for everybody, and yup it's gonna make my think when it comes time to change the car.
