  • Please explain why road pricing would be bad for not-London. I'm clearly missing something.

    I'm not proposing an increase in tax on motor vehicles in general - just collecting it based on usage. The current system where car ownership is massively front loaded and incremental journeys are cheap disincentives alternatives that are better for the environment (global and local) and us.

    Lack of alternatives mainly.

  • Road use isn't free now. Replace the VED + petrol/diesel tax with a per mile charge. Same amount of cash out on average. Charge more where there are alternatives and less where there aren't.
