The sensible way would be to tax on actual road usage. Quite easy

That's always been easy - get the MOT check to register your
odometer (I know, first 3 years would need a special case).

Far far too easy to fiddle the mileage reading on any car. The used
car trade has been doing it for ever.


Including electronic odometers?

Even easier with the correct software.


It doesn't look that easy:

Looks pretty simple to me - especially if lots of money is involved. And
most can be done without a soldering iron anyway.

For everything that claims to be hack proof, there is always a hacker.
