Sorry, being intellectually challenged compared to you (I assume this is what you're implying) I
fail to understand how I have demonstrated that my claim is wrong. They refer to it as road tax, you
admit that. It doesn't matter if they do so once or a thousand times and that they also call it VED,
the fact is that they feel a need to refer to it as road tax. If they really wanted to re-educate
people they wouldn't do this. Or they could at least write, "formerly known as road tax."
