Not before time but hopefully the changes are well thought through and mindful of their effects on emissions.

Modern vehicles' increasing fuel efficiency has resulted in the RUC as part of petrol price now not being sufficient to fund road maintenance so like most Western countries our government is planning to change this taxation model for one that works. Essentially the RUC system is no longer fit for purpose so a ground-up rebuild is inevitable.

By mileage...or kilometerage - but the odo on my motorcycle has stopped working, which is not a problem at the moment. Maybe I'll just make up numbers...keep a record so I don't go backwards.
