Plan to Fix Potholes by Taxing Drivers Off the Road?!
Potholes. They’re everywhere. Frankly, we’ve had enough. But the latest proposed “solution” to Britain’s ever-worsening road surface scandal? Tax bigger cars more. More tax?! Yes, really. According to campaigners and reports out today, drivers of larger vehicles – think SUVs and family-sized motors – should be taxed more heavily to help pay for pothole repairs. The logic? “Supersized cars = supersized damage.” Well, forgive me for not buying it.
