Idea of a national road pricing scheme has reportedly been revived...

The video discusses the potential introduction of road charging to compensate for lost tax revenue as more people switch to electric cars. It highlights the unpopularity of such charges, especially in areas with limited public transport. The government plans to ban petrol and diesel car sales by 2030, which will reduce fuel duty income. A proposed system offers free miles to drivers, with additional benefits for rural residents, followed by a per-mile charge. Existing charges like London's congestion charge and the M6 toll are mentioned, and future systems may involve vehicle tracking to support a greener future.
