    Road Tax doesn't put his hand in his pocket for anything. Getting away with murder. Not even paying Motor Tax.

    What's with these threads? People feel they're not getting anything but a piece of paper for their road tax so they're using it as an excuse to have a go at any living being that presently doesn't have to pay it

    I think the taxman should pay the taxman tax.

    The government should introduce a road tax. Should only be paid by roadies though.

    Not really. I give two hoots what the road tax is or what they decide to use it for. It's the very least of the ways we get shafted in Ireland. VAT, Income tax, Property tax all bug me far more.

    You get taxed on your wages. Fair enough(ish). Then you get taxed on everything you buy with those wages at 23%. Then you pay house tax, water tax(soon), TV tax, Car tax, 89c per litre fuel tax, carbon tax, inheritance tax, capital gains tax, tax on the interest your savings managed to acumulate, Stamp duty, County council levvies, fcuk me it's a wonder anyone has any money left at all. If you really sat down and worked it out, the real rate of Tax taken out of your wages is a damn sight higher than the "advertised rate".

    Also, why does getting it(motor tax) have to be such a pain in the hole? Surely pop into the Post office, pay the money, get a disc. What's with all the blo0dy hoops you have to jump through?

    if it's got a motor it pays tax. Or its owner does, for it.

    There are quite a few idiots we haven't got through to yet. I suspect that may be the purpose of this parody.

    OP, you did intend this to be a parody.....didn't you...?

    Yes but the roads are not roads.
    More like Moon craters.
    Do the Moonies pay Road Tax?

    If we're making cyclists, children, the road tax itself, bears and all other wild and farm animals pay this new "Road tax". May I suggest motorists too?
