Most of the revenue to maintain the roads comes from fuel duty & VAT.


Well it all comes from the treasury pot so its rather academic how much is
raised by which tax since none of them are specifically reserved to be spent
on the roads. But you still have to tax an insure your car if its on a public
road even if you pushed it yourself.
