This petition is to urge the government to replace road tax with an additional tax on fuel. This would increase revenues by preventing motorists from unlawfully avoiding paying road tax, while making the system fairer. Heavier road users and motorists with fuel inefficient vehicles would be penalised, while motorists would be rewarded for choosing cleaner methods of transport. The tax disc system would be retained to enfoce insurance and MOT requirements, with a nominal charge to cover administration.
