Open Do not introduce pay-per-mile road charging for UK drivers

Created by Darren Smith
Closes on

Many people depend on driving for work, education, and family life, with no viable public transport. We think a pay-per-mile tax would unfairly hit many families, shift workers and parents supporting children’s sports.

We believe pay-per-mile charging would punish responsible drivers who already pay road tax, fuel duty, and insurance. It risks isolating rural communities and damaging small businesses that rely on transport. Families, carers, and key workers would face extra costs simply to get to work or support their children. The Government should protect freedom of movement, not add more financial pressure to those with no transport alternatives.
