For the people who state 'facts' but are wrong. there's a 5% surcharge if you pay by direct debit. (probably rise to around 10% not long after launch)

Hold on, doesn’t that mean that if I sell my car in the middle of a month then the new owner and I will both end up paying tax for that month?

Yes, unfortunately.

and this one is funny.

If my car doesn’t have a tax disc, how will the authorities know that I have paid?

Your tax details will be registered with the DVLA so they will be aware which cars are taxed correctly. Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) devices will be around to catch out any cars that aren’t taxed appropriately.

Just like they do now with uninsured drivers. cars with no MOT.

Have they made it so I can't grass somebody up for driving a car with no TAX?

Yes.
