    Default Where does the road tax money go ?

    If we only get 20% of the road tax collected being used for the roads ,where does the 80% go ? . Maybe its used to give Lewis Hamilton a vat refund on his £20 million plus jet.

    The state of the road are leading to deaths and those to turn to the three monkey school of thought should hang their heads in same. To many self centred and I'm . all right jack folk on this site . Maybe their view would change if the hand of misfortune paid them a visit.

    Road Tax was abolished in 1937 and replaced by Vehicle Excise Duty. This is a tax on cars, not roads, and it goes straight into the general Treasury fund.
