Having read the argument and rebuttals against the moronic chant of 'you don't pay road tax' I am confused.
The rebuttal appears to rely on the fact that road building is paid for by general taxation and is based on emissions therefore cyclist have zero emissions therefore pay zero.
However I can't think of a way of driving on the road (legally) without paying tax to access them even if you have a very low emission car.
So have the much derided motorists actually got a point? If so can we come up with a better rebuttal?
