Road Pricing Proposal

Leo No.8 · January 23, 2007

Just had this email, can't believe they'd even think about doing this:

'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 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.

Please pass this on to anyone who owns a car/motorcycle. It affects

them. '
