Will someone explain to me what 'Sports Utility Vehicles' are for? OK, I understand if you’re a farmer or have a job where you might need to leave the ‘Queens Highway’ to get your tyres muddy, but if you’re living in the middle of London and running the kids to school or popping down to Sainsburys what earthly purpose do they serve? They take up half again as much room when parked, they consume vast amounts of resources to run and block out the sun for everyone apart from other SUV drivers. Yes, you may well be creating a safe haven for little Jonnie as you drive him the half a mile to school, but you’re endangering everyone else’s children as you pump large amounts of noxious gases into the atmosphere and crush their bicycles beneath your pointless off road tyres. And who let someone import a Cadillac Escalade into in the UK, I saw one the other day it’s a house on wheels, it makes a Range Rover look like a Nissan Micra. If you’re charging around the desert in the middle east or driving down some ten lane superhighway in the US maybe, just maybe it makes sense, but parked outside a tiny Victorian two up two down terrace house in south west London where the roads were designed to take nothing wider than a bloke on a bike with a basket full of Hovis, I think not. I propose a change in the law. Car tax should be based not only how much CO you emit in to the atmosphere but also how much space you take up on the road, if you want to take up all that extra space you should pay for it. That then neatly covers all those ridiculous caravans at the same time.
