petition

This is legitimate, direct, electronic petition presented on the 10 Downing Street Website.


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.

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 a NIP (Notice of Intended Prosecution ) with your monthly bill.

If you care about our freedoms and the constant bashing of the car and motorcycle driver for yet more tax, please sign the petition on No 10's new website against the planned vehicle tracking and road pricing policy.

http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/traveltax/

Send to anyone who owns a car/motorcycle. It will affect them all!!!

Count me in, but if it ever becomes compulsory, I'm definitely out of this country and just return to bleed the NHS, if it survives under this loony government, why are we allowing them to get away with all the lies and stupid legislation .

We call the French, they don't stand for it.
