Electric Vehicle owners will now need to pay #VehicleExciseDuty (sometimes incorrectly termed "Road Tax" and on the BBC incorrectly called "Car Tax").
The RAC have said it's "probably fair" that #EV owners should "contribute to the upkeep of roads" although of course roads are maintained with funds from general taxation so everybody already pays.
EVs do cause damage to the roads although maybe this is a nudge in the wrong direction.
