Why is it motorists are always being targeted?

Question:
Don't get me wrong I know cars emit a lot of co2 etc but the motorist is heavily taxed enough as it is without adding more!.
It wouldn't be so bad if there was more alternatives but the public transport outside major towns in this country is a joke! What are we supposed to do? go back to the good old days of waggon and horses when it took weeks rather than hours to get somewhere?
Why isn't our government pushing car manufacturers towards alternatives more?(fuel cells etc) instead of looking for ways of penalizing people that cant afford new more efficient cars or just cant do without there car.
Oh! and whilst I'm venting...lol...how come people keep attacking the motorist for his polluting ways when they're quite happy to go of on there holidays in a plane that can put out more co2 into the environment in one trip than my car(2litre turbo) in a year!..bloomin hypocrites!.........Whinge over. :-)
If youve seen this post before its because I pute it in the wrong place....Doh!

Soft target.

Cruise control?


Simple as that, they can increase tax on fuel, increase vehicle duty, increase insurance tax and what choice have we got? Crap public transport or keep using the car.

Regulation of high horse power?


As for why our govenment isn't pushing industry - most MP's are involved with industry.... conflict of interests perhaps?

my vauxhall corsa pulls to the left when driving, any suggestions why?

to make money and they kno there nothing you can do about it

what does my car need to pass texas inspection?

It is because we are nice easy sitting targets. And they know we will just keep paying as the alternate choice is crap buses that never turn up on time.

How did the invention of the steam locomotive change the world?

We really are sitting ducks, sitting in traffic in congestion any time we drive in any city of decent size. In the country if it isn't a 4X4 running us off the road, it is a lorry (truck) driver who can't get moving.
Meanwhile, we either as was said have to put up with crap busses, or worse, or get taxed to death one way or the other.
If we went back to horses, they would follow us about and put on a tax anytime the horse did a bog on the road! Poor old horses may have to have a sticker on their left ar*se side saying the registration fees had been paid.
For that matter, it is a wonder all of us in the Western World don't have to have a disk on our arses as well. Anything to tax the public.

Once a car's miles run out, is it worthless ?

for at least a 100 years a lot of inventors have been killed, branded lunatic and their labs ransacked, governments hide new technology from people, people made cars that run on water, by splitting hydrogen and oxygen in their garage, inventor by the name of john kelly demonstrated his flying disk about 200 years ago to department of war, (so did nikolla tesla) now homeland security, big corporations buy patents of these inventors and "shelve" it, our own president is heavily into oil shares (along with bin laden) do you think he will allow for a change?!?!?
