scrap all road tax

Additional Information

I want the government to scrap all road tax and replace the lost revenue with a small increase on each litre of fuel. The advantages are as follows.
1. No one will be able to avoid the tax (we all need fuel)
2. The more fuel you use , the more you will pay which is fairer to all road users..
3. It will address the problem of unfairness for those people who only do a little mileage but pay the same Road Fund Licence as people who do many times more miles.
4. No need for tax discs on cars, this could be replaced by displaying a MOT certificate.
5. Enormous savings could be made in administration at DVLC Swansea.
6. Foreign drivers on our roads would make a contribution for the upkeep and repairs as would all drivers, in proportion to their usage.
7. This would be a 'greener approach' to pollution tax.
