Ouch!
A friend was once given a biopsy by a sleep-deprived junior doctor.
They needed a sample of his colon, so inserted the long bendy jaws-on-the-end thingy, located the suspect area and... he shot through the ceiling. Doctor had forgotten to administer any anaesthetic.
What was your ouchiest moment?

There's no such thing as Road Tax
There's Vehicle Excise Duty and Fuel Duty. Receipts from both of these levies far exceed the total expenditure on transport though.
I'm against the idea of taxing cyclists, but I do think compulsory proficiency testing at school age is a good idea.

I think a license should be earned just like with a car.
And I don't see why they shouldn't pay VED - they already pay fuel tax so yes - that's fine.
