Rejected petition Stop charging vehicle tax at a monthly rate. It should be charged daily.

Vehicle duty (road tax) is currently an unfair tax ripping off the British motorist. Charging monthly means if someone buys or sells a vehicle mid month the Government benefits by getting 2 lots of tax for that month from the buyer AND seller (if the new owner uses it immediately). Charge daily.

More details

The great vehicle tax rip off .. along with insurance tax means anyone using a vehicle legally gets stung enough WITHOUT the Chancellors underhand robbery. I don't want to pay for the days I don't use my vehicles, I can only use one at once and the current system rips me off if I change one mid month.
