Whilst I subscribe in part to your arguement, surely road useage also impacts the road and at what time of day (whilst fuel duty does generate further revenues to in part compensate) surely when, where and how far you travel aka a mileage charge would be more equitable. High mileage users and commuiters which cause untold delays, impact the road structure and the environment more than a casual user and should pay more heavily/bear a heavier burden for the pleasure. The continuous stpo starting of commuter traffic 9braling and moving off) must be more damaging than moving traffic...but have no empirical evidence to support that.
What has the relative value of the car and increased RFL got to do with maintaining the roads other than being easy prey to tax even further.
