Well they would be scrapping road tax so depending on how many miles an individual does on a tolled road, you could end up better off... imagine someone who's got say a caterham, probably does a 1000 miles a year, but still has to tax it for 12 months, or sorn it etc, for someone like that it would be beneficial I guess if the tax was just on fuel.

There are pros and cons to every argument here, the government want to reduce congestion by pricing people and businesses out of the market, rathr than address problems such as public transport etc
