Everything does, according to the wear it causes. Cars pay some,
lorries pay a lot.

And many cars pay no car tax at all.

AAMOF, no cars pay road tax.

Agreed, but I didn't say *road tax*.

No problem: no cars, or any vehicles at all, pay tax of any sort.

Then you should inform our government that they are misnaming this charge:

Err... people, ie, users or keepers pay the duty on the vehicle. My car
doesn't pay it. Though it is a few years old and I know things have
moved on a bit...

Call it what you like it's not road tax.

It's a tax, it pays for the roads, it's a road tax.

Technically it's '60% of the motorway maintenance budget tax', the
rest of the motorway maintenance and all new motorways are paid for
by high rate tax payers i.e. cyclists mainly.

It's not even that much. Some of the money received through VED comes
from recycled benefits and some comes from business users claiming it as
an expense to reduce other taxes.

All tax payers pay for roads, not just motorists. Those who pay income
tax and those who pay council tax are the ones who pay for roads, and
that's not just motorists. And anybody who buys anything in Britain also
helps to pay for roads because VAT also contributes to the national
coffers.23 Apr 2012

That's because, as you have been told again and again, there
is no

It's called road tax, just like a vacuum cleaner is called a
hoover. I
don't ce if the government allocates it somewhere else like
nuclear
weapons, it's still road tax.

Have you become a cyclist or contracted OCD? It's road tax,
everybody
calls it that. It's a tax vehicles pay to use the road.

No vehicles pay tax of any sort.

Tax is anything given to the government. Council tax, VAT, income
tax,
road tax, etc, etc.

No vehicles give, donate or pay any tax.

This is not controversial.

Then what is the £200 a year I pay for my Renault?

You pay?

Or your Renault pays?

Make your mind up.

Why have you stooped to the childish pedantry of the psycholists in here?

If you crashed into a pedestrian, and the victim was telling the
policeman that your car ran her over, would you seriously object and
say, no I ran her over, my car couldn't do that by itself?

No, I would not.

Contrary to your apparent belief, it would be true (in those unlikely
circumstances) that the car had run over her. It would not be true that
I had run over her. I would have driven over her.

I am unaware of any record held by Chuck Yeager.
