EU to tax British drivers

MILLIONS of used car owners could be hit with higher road taxes under new Brussels rules.

The European Commission plans to replace the £38 registration levy on new cars with higher fuel and road taxes.

But motoring organisations warn this would hit less well-off drivers of second-hand cars.

Edmund King, of the RAC Foundation, said: “It will be an extra tax on people on low incomes.”

He fears the Chancellor could use such a shake-up to rake in millions.

Shadow Transport Secretary Damian Green blasted EU “interfering”.
