The government's proposal to introduce road pricing will mean you having to
purchase a tracking device for your car and paying a monthly bill to use it.
The tracking device will cost about £200 and in a recent study by the BBC,
the lowest monthly bill was £28 for a rural florist and £194 for a delivery
driver.
>
A non working Mum who used the car to take the kids to school paid £86 in
one month. (Wished they asked me, my bill just for commuting to and from
work would be in excess of £1000 per month!)
On top of this massive increase in tax, you will be tracked.
>Somebody will know where you are at all times. They will also know how fast you
have been going, so even if you accidentally creep over a speed limit* you
>can expect and additional fine with your monthly bill.
>
If you care about our freedoms and stopping the constant bashing of the
car driver, please sign the petition on No 10's new website
http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/traveltax/

Please pass this on to anyone who owns a car/motorcycle. It affects them.
> >>
Its not limited to speeding. They also know where parking
>restrictions etc are located. And you!
(Additional - I have just been on the No10 site and there is LESS
>than 100k signed up to it. There are over 30million vehicles and drivers
>in this country. Just to register 1% of those against this proposal there needs
to be
300k signed up! and the closing date is 20/02/07. Did you know about this
I did't.)
