Already paid. A ****ing shitload of VAT and Tax, and VED on my car, and
FWIW, tax money isn't kept in seperate pots - they don't have a pot full of
cash from car drivers to spend on fixing the roads any more than they have a
pot from smokers specifically for curing lung cancer - they just shove it
all in one lump. Having bikes taxed a la Switzerland will not raise any
serious amounts of cash.
