It's someone else's property. If it gets damaged by someone other than
the
owner, then it's up to that person to put it back to how it was.

Does that apply to the damage your exhaust emissions do to the atmosphere
and other people's health?


Yes, it does. The vast amounts of money raised in taxes on motorists
(mainly from fuel duty) partly go towards paying for the NHS.



The damage is still done, you're (i.e. we're) obviously not paying enough.

Raise fuel duty!


Raise air duty first. Personal liberty and freedom of movement within a
functional lifestyle space is far more important than long-distance
leisure travel.
