nice, but perpetuates the cagers' myth that "road tax" goes towards fixing the roads…

It does, but because there is so much money raised from VED and put into central funds, it should perhaps say 'Now go and fix some Fu**ing potholes, cut NHS waiting lists and silver line your index linked pension', but the writing would be really small if said that so perhaps the message would be lost

Fallacy - The income for VED is in fact LESS than spent on road building!
Depending o who you refer to the real "cost" of motoring to the tax pool is about £1000 pound a year subsidy for each vehicle!
