There are only a few days left to register your objection to the 'Pay as you go' road tax - which closes to petitions on the 20th February 2007.
The petition is on the 10 Downing St website but they didn't tell anybody about it. Therefore at this time not enough people have signed it (typical)!
Once you've given your details (you don't have to give your full address, just house number and postcode will do), they will send you an email
with a link in it. Once you click on that link, you'll have signed the petition.

The government's proposal to introduce road pricing will mean you having to purchase a tracking device for your car and paying a monthly bill to use it. The tracking device will cost about £200 and in a recent study by the BBC, the lowest monthly bill was £28 for a rural florist and £194 for a delivery driver. A non working mother who used the car to take the kids to school paid £86 in one month.

On top of this massive increase in tax, you will be tracked. Somebody will know where you are at all times. They will also know how fast you
have been going, so even if you accidentally creep over a speed limit in time you can probably expect a Notice of Intended Prosecution with your monthly bill.
If you care about our freedom and stopping the constant bashing of the car driver, please sign the petition on No 10's new website (link below) get as many others to do the same

We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Scrap the planned vehicle tracking and road pricing policy.

Thanks for that. I didn't even know the petition existed! I bet that's why the governement keep it quiet, so no one signs it, and so they can tax us even more!!!
