Re: OK, now let's get the cyclists

From the Road Users Alliance Annual handbook 2004

Fuel Tax Paid £22.1bn
VED Paid £ 4.6bn
Vat on vehicles £ 6.8bn
Vat on fuel £ 5.6bn
Company Car Tax £ 3.1bn

Total £ 42.2bn

Road Spending £ 6.7bn

Government Waste £ 35.5bn

Not really any point in taxing cyclists if motorists are being that generous!
