Re: £15 extra tax on car fines
I agree with Gary on this actually. Why should a MOTORIST pay for crimes completely unrelated to motoring...

I could understand if for example Mr A attacked Ms X, was caught and got a particular sentence including costs plus the £15 surcharge to help victims of such crimes. But they target motorists yet again because they don't know who else to take it from!
