Yep sounds good to me. The main thing is to reduce congestion. The current thinking is by making us all pay tolls to enter cities. That will probably work, something which is fine for rich people but will impact on the poorer. Some could argue thats fine. Personally I would rather poor safe drivers on the road than rich crap ones. I think the best way to decide who should be on the road is by their ability to actually drive, not by how much money they have.
Building more roads will never work either, because you can't build more roads in cities where all the traffic is heading. By building bigger motorways you are just moving the trafic jam closer to the city. They need to stop people using their cars, thats the bottom line. What the government want us to do is still buy the car, still insure it, still pay tax, but then never use it. My proposition is that we reduce the number of people who use cars by removing those who are a danger to others and the side affect will be a reduction of accidents on our roads.
