How many of you are going to refuse to by road tax so you can buy petrol for your car?

Question

if the goverment refuses to ban tax on fuel you should not pay any road tax.

Answer 1

The days of driving around with no road tax have gone now. Cameras and coppers are equipped with devices which can read your disc (or see that you don't have one) even when you are on the move. They even know immediately whether you are insured or have an up to date MOT. Forget about not buying tax. Try it and you can watch your motor being crunched.

Answer 2

Yes and get your car repossessed and crushed - no thx

Answer 3

"refuse to ban tax on fuel"

No government in the world is going to ban tax on fuel, and by not paying for your road tax it will just mean other have to pay more, you will be arrested and the tax on petrol will go up more to make up for the money lost on people not paying there road tax.

Answer 4

Roads are not made for the personal entertainment of people and their private vehicle. Roads are there for the benefit of the people living in the area, as well as the security and control of the state over the region of territory. As such, "boycotting" a tax on the roads isn't a simple boycott against the cost of gas, you are boycotting the underlying structure that promises a swift and effective military. You aren't simply saying "Gas is so high that our government should do something about it", you are also saying "I feel that the entire transportation system for our troops should topple"

I generally don't like the "support our troops" message passed around. I feel it's hollow and/or meaningless. Statements encouraging people to boycott a tax to keep our transportation system operational so that important things such as food, armor, and ammunition cannot transverse from the diverse locations of it's manufacture to the troops out there needing them... This confirms for me that the yellow ribbon stickers some people use ARE hollow and meaningless.

I, for one, will not boycott a road tax. I'd rather have good roads then affordable gas. Turns out good roads are as beneficial to someone on foot as someone in a car.

Answer 5

My car is a Citroen C3 Diesel, £35 a year Road tax, ( £20 next year ), 65 miles to the gallon, not the most glamorous car to own but in the current situation, I am well happy.

Answer 6

Best way is to stop everybody using any form of transport for a week or so.

The rip off government would lose so mush incomes and profits, they will beg people to drive again.

Imagine, No cars using gas.

No trucks delivering needed goods,

No trains since they would have no drivers,

No ships without goods to transport.

The best ever civil war against any government is total black out on their precious robbery-incomes !

Answer 11

Good luck m8. Trouble is most people will grudgingly go on paying whatever they're told to and not kick up a fuss. You'll be the one paying for it in the end.

Presumably you mean Motor Vehicle Excise Duty.

Answer 15

We should all stop driving altogether and boycot gas.  That would be the only way to stop the rise of oil and to secure our dollar again.  This is warfare that is being used against the people.  What are we going to do when the price of oil is so high that food deliveries to supermarkets cannot continue.  It will be all out rioting in every city in every state!

Answer 16

I wish - it cost me over £200 last week.
