Make Road Tax payable daily NOT monthly
MOT certificates and insurance run from the day you instigate them, so why must car tax run for WHOLE MONTH periods?
It is illogical and a complete rip-off that vehicles need to be taxed for full months when they cannot be used because one of the above items may not be current or the car is sold.
Now that we do not have to display tax discs and everything is computerized, road tax should run for either 6 or 12 months from the DATE IT IS INSTIGATED.
Not everyone can MOT their car on the 1st day of the month and neither can sell or take their vehicle off the road on the last day of a month, so we are paying needlessly.
Particularly now that you cannot sell a vehicle with the road tax included, the government are receiving tax from both parties during the month when a sale takes place.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
