Apparently we are all to be taxed for using the motorways from 2014.
Later perhaps. the system is to be expanded to all roads.

The gov.thinks we will soon mostly be driving electric cars, this is
probably to rake in the tax not paid by electric car drivers I think.
Tough **** if you end up not driving an electric car and paying both
petrol tax and new road tax.

I bet the present road tax will be kept as well.

They should put all the tax on fuel. That would be much fairer.
