[–] mattbee 1mo ago ↗ Sounds like a bargain. In the UK we'll be paying £0.03 per mile from April 2028.
[–] semiquaver 1mo ago ↗ Absolutely dishonest framing. Road maintenance is funded via gas tax. Thus EV owners should have to pay a different way. They certainly use the roads, so why would this be controversial?
[–] heathrow83829 1mo ago ↗ flat rate taxes are never fair. It should be based on a per use basis. either have a tire tax or some other per mile use tax.
