A first here in Belgium ! Does it exist in Scotland ?
If not, you can guarantee it’ll be coming soon !
In a country with the reputation of being one of the most taxed in the world, we now have a new one on our city streets. Passed one on the road this morning !
The Government Tax Department have “police” patrols and road-traps to find drivers who have not paid their road tax and insurance policies.
The camera records the car registration number and in a matter of seconds, detects an un-insured car. One hundred yards up the road is a ‘battalion’ of at least 4 vehicles and dogs from customs and excise to carburant verification. (diesel cars running on heating fuel)
Just in our region alone, it’s so far reaped 75.000€ of income since the beginning of the year. (principally foreigners)
So beware ! Lol !
