You wait until the govt of the day sticks the equivalent of fuel duty on the electric you charge your dodgem with…anyone wonder why they’re pushing smart meters :bulb: …all of sudden the cost of running an electric car will take a massive hike, the playing field levelled somewhat.

The powers that be are coming up with some interesting ways of future “Road taxation” for the new world order of EV transport!

Micro-Billing! :open_mouth: With 5G upon us and all new vehicles equipped with V21communications, V2V vehicle to vehicle, V2X Vehicle to everything chips, your vehicle will talk to the roadside furniture /infrastructure as to where you are with Wi-Fi & GPS and will bill you accordingly, the more congested the road is the more you will pay.

They say there will be scenarios whereas you can pay additional tolls through the micro-tolling infrastructure to get to your destination quicker through V2V communications, The vehicle pays vehicles ahead to give right of way through V2I communications & smart traffic lighting systems, on the other hand if you can defer your journey at busy times via a smart phone your vehicle will receive credits :open_mouth:

Who voted for all this and where was that made that clear to the electorate in the LibDem in all but name Party’s manifesto.

While the untaxed price of electric at 18p per KWH is effectively already similar to that of taxed road fuel.The whole thing is a control freak joke which can only have been invented by the Chinese Communist Party and implemented by their quislings in the government.
