Govt Targets Motorists Again

Many of us motorists don't drive big fat 4x4s, we don't make 100s of unecessary journeys just for fun - we simply use our cars to do our ordinary jobs and to get through the basic tasks of daily life.

But what a surprise - the Government may be planning to introduce a severe form of tax - making motorists pay £100s for a tracking device which would clock their every move... where they travelled, how fast they travelled, where they parked upon arrival - you name it.

Makes Big Brother look tame!!!!

So come on motorsists - don't let this Govt get away with it... click the link below, to sign an online petition against this SINISTER tax.

What I can't find is a detailed explanation of the proposals, as I picked up this info from an email where I work (a labout run local authority ironically!!!)
