And 0.5mpg... Which raises the other "problem" with road pricing,
there is little incentive to go for a more economic vehicle (as in
mpg) if a majority of the driving you do is on "cheap" roads. A
"cheap" road would be one less than about 8p/mile which is roughly the
current duty element of fuel costs.

Watching a report on "This Week" last night, it seems they are already
shifting the goalposts a bit. They were then talking about charging per
mile where the price paid per mile for the same stretch of road would
vary depending on your type of vehicle as well as they time of day and
type of road.
