    I have a simple response to the 'pay some road tax' abuse I get now and again. I simply reply with 'I'm not required to by law so instead of shouting at me to do something that is impossible, write to the goverment and tell them that I should pay if you feel that strongly about it'.

    Usually shuts them up.


    Crikey, don't think i'd have the time for all that, a much more practical and equally compelling argument is, F$*CK OFF CVNT

    I like the "your a pedo cos your on facebook", its only the same as judging all cyclists for the few that go through red lights

    You could always shout "PAEDO!!" at drivers who do this, esp if their going past the school run. :twisted: (Please note, I am just being sick :lol: )

    Churchill abolished road tax in the 30s. Local roads are paid for by local councills. Motorways maintained by County Councils. All are eventually allocated funds by central goverment so if you buy a mars bar or gallon of petrol you are paying for the roads. Vehicle tax like everything else goes into the same corrupted pot.

    He also argued against its introduction on the grounds that it would only be a matter of time before someone used the fact that they paid "Road Tax" to claim ownership of the roads they felt they were paying for.

    According to the Govt. (who should, but perhaps don't know...) cyclists on average pay more VED than non-cyclists. They are more likely to own cars.

    Is the argument that each bike should be taxed? If so then should the tax be proportionate to the damage inflicted by the bicycle on the roads? In which case it would be what ... 0.1% of the VED of a car ... in which case it would cost far more to administer than the value of the tax take ... requiring other taxes to rise to pay for it.

    Not your fault if this individual has a skull full of shit. I wouldn't bother talking to him again.

    I don't drive so I don't pay road tax.

    what precicely is road tax for? Is it for the upkeep, wear and tear of roads? I don't damage the road, not since I lost weight anyway!

    As far as i'm aware it's not to use the road itself. That would be the extra 'congestion charge' or tolls on the bridges and one strech of motorway but I can't remember which one.

    red lights... no defense just don't go through them and take the moral high ground

    For those of you who asked, a spunk pebble is one of those crusty bits of man goo that are found in the curlies after making shapes with one's loved one, or a barn yard animal if you are from Norwich.

    May I suggest that every member of Bike Radar joins the group, them swamps it with pro cycling posts! Flash Mobbing it's called!
    I shall start today!

    Alternatively, ignore the spunk pebbles to their pointless ranting. Who cares? Joining in isn't about to change their opinion, is it?

    Had a London Cabby tell me that I don't pay road. I could have told him that I actually pay road tax for three cars, and only drive a total of 12,000 a year, but rather than bother with that, I told him, "But I do pay income tax. You should try that some day."

    Cabbies. Scum. I think I'll start a Facebook Group on it.

    Thanks for that Nevis. That is by far the most interesting post in the whole of this thread.
    All the random halfwit chatter about bikes and road tax was giving me a brain disease.

    I did exactly the same 2 weeks ago. A women tried to barge me off the road by driving into me from my right hand side. As I approached her drivers window to 'have a polite word' it was already down and I was greeted with 'you want to learn how to ride a bike'. I asked why she had tried to run me over to which she replied' I was in her way' :shock:

    I thought about just giving her some verbal then riding off but the door mirror was just crying out to be knocked off....so I gave in to temptation and gave it one almighty whack.

    Its not something I'd normally be proud of but this ignorant b*tch deserved nothing less. :twisted:
