The government's lates tax proposal is to introduce road pricing will meanhaving to purchase a tracking device for our cars and paying a monthly bill -tax - based upon millage.
.
The tracking device will cost about £200 and in a recent trial and study by the BBC, the lowest monthly bill was £28 for a rural florist and £194 for a delivery driver. The cost higher milage drivers will be huge. In the BBC trial a non working Mum who used the car to take the kids to school paid £86 in one month.

On top of this massive increase in tax, we will be tracked. Somebody will know where you are at all times. They will also know how fast we have have been going, so even if you accidentally creep over a speed limit you can expect and additional fine with your monthly bill.
