Tax on fuel would have the great advantage that they could
dismantle all the red tape involved in handling tax discs.

I don't think that is true. They will still want to know who the
owner is, etc. and the tax disc gives them the opportunity to try to
force that to be checked every year.


And also to check that the ****er has insurance.

Somebody that has no insurance won't bother with road tax anyway. You
could have a disc to show you had insurance.


now that everything is computerised, the police just need to enter the
number and the insuarnce detaisl (or not) will pop up
