Later perhaps. the system is to be expanded to all roads.

The gov.thinks we will soon mostly be driving electric cars, this is

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

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

I have often thought that.
Electricity would still be relatively tax free though.
