Then pay your fair share.

It's the truckers that don't pay their fair share - they do almost
all of the damage to roads (which requires resurfacing etc), and
that's a really large portion of the money spent on roads.


Don't they pay up to around £1800 or so per year in road tax?

Compared to around £160 for cars, and a lot less for motorbikes.

Though I must admit I don't know the whole picture.
