Tyre pollution

[Mick_J]

Just saw this, wonder if the government will now make us change to a much harder (American) tyre to reduce pollution and tax you on the number of tyres your vehicle has and forget about petrol and diesel tax.

Very interesting read that.  Yep, just another source of revenue for the gruberment.

Sadly.. I can think of more taxes .

Food stove, pellet and bbq tax
Flatulence tax
Personal volume tax

No, the government won`t forget about petrol and diesel tax, they`ll just add a tyre tax to it

It's another reason electric cars are shit. I believe tyre & brake pollution is more the size of dangerous particles than petrol emissions.

A load of shit i reckon.

All that carbon black washed into the waterways, not to mention the process to make it (burn't oil).
