"Road Tax" is a frequently used canard by anti-cycling lobbies in the UK. Taxation of motorists to pay for roads ended in 1937. Since then road building and maintenance has been paid for through general taxation regardless of whether tax payers own or drive a vehicle. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motoring_taxation_in_the_United_Kingdom#1937_–_today
