Re: Hmm

That's incorrect. Your Vehicle Exise Duty goes into the general taxation pot and has done for decades.
We're all paying towards the pot that road maintenance comes out of, whether we have a car or not.
It's not an entirely relevant point (though I could ask why my having a car is paying for your kids education), but as we were already going down a rabbit hole in this thread I thought I'd add to it.
