Simplest reply to that is "Yes I do, I just chose not to drive today"
Rather than the usual no such thing as road tax etc etc. People are too ignorant to accept being corrected

Agreed, I’m very good at getting pedantic about things. Did let her know that I do emissions tax on our vehicle of course!

One of many falsehoods surrounding cycling by gamonheads that if you ride a bike it's because you can't/don't drive.
They just can't comprehend that you would willingly cycle and god forbid actually enjoy it. You must just be poor or stupid instead because they presume everyone must be as lazy and as selfish as them to drive absolutely everywhere.
Last person that shouted that at me also said that all cyclists are arrogant and think they own the road, not at all spotting the irony of that coming from a man demanding I get out of HIS way.

Young lass just flew past me and little human on the Brompton, I had moved out as drivers always try and push past on this section, small blind bridge with a turn, I can see oncoming, in a car you can see enough to overtake. Floored in past under a meter, with a car oncoming. Pulls straight into her work so rude not to just say hi and raise awareness. After she claimed I didn’t pay road tax I knew we were not going to get anywhere, my anger amounted to call her princess and I didn’t swear once! - an improvement, especially when I have little human on board!
